W. H. AND THE GIRLS AGAIN.
Poor " Gentle Annie " cannot do, 3?or W. H. narades with two — A pair of most engaging girls, At sight of whom nry head quite whirls. Brim full of innocent delight, They strolled about on Saturday night ; Our masher, walking between the pair, Seemed quite at home and happy there. One's fur trimmed dress was sombre grey Or so it seemed by moonlight's ray ; Her eyes a bright, deep, greyish hue, And height, like Annie's, five feet two. The other was a mild brunette, With eyes not quite as black as jet ; With W. H. she cracked her joke, And in most loving accent spoke. Now, as they on their shopping went, They seemed on fun more fully bent. He looked at that, and looked at this, And surely thought them not amiss. ' They looked at this, and looked at that, And neither thought themselves too fatSo at a pastry cook's they stopped. On issuing forth each lovely one J Was munching a rich German bun. But near his den at length they drew, And to my sight were lost to view. These fair ones have most truly made Poor " Gentle Annie " seek the shade;, And she, when next he on her gazes, Will W. H. consign to blazes ?
