THE SEVEN AGES OF TEA. DBINKING. All the worid drinks Tea, And all the men and women dearly like it. They have their breakfasts and their " five o'clocks," And one man in his time drinks many kinds, His drinking having seven stages. At first he knows Not rubbish from the perfect growths of Eastern climes ; And then some wily shopman wicb Vile packets of adulterated stuff, deception tries ( The ignorant to befool. And then tea brewing, -, Stewing in teapots, making tea atrocious, Unfit for human drinking. Then the • buyer Maketh strange oaths, and tries another sort. Purity wanting, no matter what the mixing, Seeking the blends of reputation, even Down in Wellington. And then the cheap stun: In paper packages, not even lined, 'With tints unreal, and shreds of every cut, Full of wild straw and modern dirtiness, Such" cheapness very dear. * The sixth stage shifts, And then we find a tea that is a boon. It comes to us, well blessed, a real pure tea, From India's snores and far Ceylon. And this right manly choice Turns tea-drinking to pleasure, fair and free, ' The whole of the year round.
