INFELICITY.
There is no shirt, however washed and mended, That hath due buttons there : There is no pat of butter— real or prefcendsd— Without its truant hair. There is no babe that doesn't suck his finger, And howl till all is blue : No organ in the street that doesn't linger A little longer, Loo. There is no vacant space on which some black* guard Sticks not his beastly bills. There soon will be no field without a placard - Belauding soap or pills.
