JUST A PARODY.
BY THE SUMMER GIRL. I. Break, break, break On thy cold gray stones, O sea ! But, oil! for the presence of just one man To come and make love to me ! 11. Oh ! well for the fisher maid As she sings with her brother at play ; But I am so envious of the jade 1 could see her in Botany Bay. hi. And well for everyone— For everyone but me. Oh ! to be anywhere under the sun Except by the tiresome sea ! IV. Break, break, break On thy cold gray stones, O sea ! I’d give my fortune for just one man To come and make love to me. Mamma : • I wonder what we shall call the baby ?’ Ethel : * I don’t think we had better call him any of the names papa called him last night when he was crying. He mightn’t like it when he growed up.’
