. THE SEVEN AGES ot TEA DBINRING. > ___ | All the worid drinks Tea, . And all the men and women dearly like it. They have thoir 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 with Viß paokets of adulterated stuff, deception tries ( The ignorant to befool. Aud then tea brewing, Stewing in teapots, making tea atrocious, Unfit for human drinking. Theu the buyer Maketh strange oaths, and tries amother sort. Purity wanting, no matter what the mixing, SeekiDg the blends of reputation, even Down in Wellington. And then the cheap stuff 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 shores and far Ceylon. And this right manly choice Turns tea-drinking to pleasure, fair and frea, Tho whole of the year round.
