GOODBYE AND How-D-Y'Do.

One day Goodbye met How-d'-y'-do,
Toe close to shan salnting;
But soon the rival sisters flew
From kissing to disputing.
" Away (says How'd -y'-do) your mien
Appals my cheerful nature;
No name so sad Us yours is seen
In sorrows nomenclature.
Whene'er gave one sunshine hour,
Your cloud comes DER TO shade it;
Whenever plant one bosom fiow'r,
Your miliew drops do fade it.
Ere How-d'-y'-do has .tun'd each tongue
= Tohopc's delightful nieasurc,
Goodbye in friendships car has rung
The knel of parting pleasure.
From sorrows past my chemic skill
Draws tears of consolation
Whilst you from present joys distiu
The tears of separation
Goodbye replied, "your statements true,
And well your case you've pleadedj
But pray who'd think Of How-d'-y'-do,
Unless Goodbye preceded!
Without my prior influences
Could yours have ever. fourish'd'
And can your hand one flower dispense,
But those my tears have nourish'd!
How off, if at the court oflove
Concealment be the fashion,
When How'd .y'-do has fail'd TO move,
Goodbye reveals the passion
How oft, when Cupid S fires decline,
As every heart remembers,
One sigh of mine, and only mine,
REEVES the dying embers!
Go bid the timid lover choose,
And I'll resign my charter;
IF he for ten kind How-d'-y'-do'
One kind Goodbye wonld charter.
From love and friendships kindred source
We both derive existence,
And they would both lose half their force
Without our joint assistance.
IT'S well the werld our merit knows,
Since time, (there's no denying)
One half in How'd -y'-doing gees,
And t'other in Good-byeing."
