Biko! bike!biko! O'er the bard street stones, 0 she! And I would I hat my toupuc could utlei Tlio thoughts that ariso in mo! 0 wfll for ihe ncwspapcr-boy, That he scoots on bis cycle away: 0 well for the butcher-lad That he pedals—perhaps it maypay, But when stately girls get on Allacrouch,and with prospectof spill, , It is 0 for the touch of a wee soft band And the sound of a voice that could thrill. Bike! biko! bike! Willi thy foot on the pedal, 0 she I But tho girlish grace that the wheel struck dead, Will never como back to thee, —Afieb Tenhysos (Trkd),
