The Modern Turpin. (Dedicated to life insurance agents.)
tn days of old When Turpin bold Held o'er the road his sway, This was his cry As he came nigh, Unto some foolish jay : "I want your money, sir, And if you make a stir, I'll take your piecious life! Stand and deliver, pray!" In modern day We find the jay, But the plan is not the same . You ride no horse, And use ;no force. And win no deathless fame. "I want your money, sir, As much as you can spare ; No need for strife, I take your life ! Now, give your drink a name!"
— A Victim.
