I'VE BEEN THINKING.

I've been thinking. I've been thinking,
What curious world we're in,
Men are sleeping, eating, drinking,
Just as they have always been
Beaux are strutting, dandies quizzing,
Misses toiling night and day,
Boys are sporting, girls are frizzng,
Grandmas 6dgeting AWAY.
Tom is crying. Mary singing,
Jack is laughing merrily.
Dust is flying, tea bells ringing,
These have music sure for me;
Peasants toiling, rich men riding,
Staring with iordly phiz,
Rogues through every crowd are gliding,
Zounds, how queer a world it is!
Marrying, some in marriage given,
Others like the world Of old,
All but me are feasting living
Would that wives were TO be sold
Others have their dears in plenty,
And their bosoms heave with love,
I've had chances, nineteen, twenty
But dare not one improve.
Brokers shaving, sherifs dunning,
Politicians pull your sleeve,
Printers scolding, wits are punning,
Jail-birds begging for reprieve,
Preachers warning, idiots ranting,
Bacchus, too, hath devotees,
Yonder wretch your wife's gallanting,
What a deuced fool he is
Lawyers spouting, clients list'ning,
Doctors prating of their skill,
Patients groaning, school-boys whistlins,
Striving all old time to kill
Pedasogues of science telling,
Milliners ofpreuy things
Lovers stroll with bosoms swelling,
Lst'ning while the nIght-bird sings.
Clouds are lowering, tempests bowling,
Friends suspecting, foes are glad.
Children screaming, mistress scowling,
Merry bosoms now are sad.
Presto they are gone forever,
All is gay as it has been,
Sunbeams shine, the grls--oh, never!
What curious world .we'rei in!
