Alasi how every thing has changed
Since was sweet sixteen,
When all the girls wore homespun frocks,
And aprons nice and clean.
With bonnets made of braided straw
That tied beneath the chin,
The shawl laid neatly on the neck,
And fastened with pin.
] recollect the time when
Rode fathers horse to mill,
Across the meadow, rock, and field,
And up and down the hill;
. And when Sour folks' were out at work,
ct never made me thirner.) ,.-
jumped upon horse, bare back, t..
And carried them their dinner.
Dear mel young ladies nowadays
Would almost FAINT away, r
To think of riding all alone
In wagon, chaise Of sleigh;
And as for giving "pa' his meals,
Or helping "ma" TO bake,
Oh dear! 'twould spoil their lilly hands.
Though sometimes they make cake.
When Writer came, the maiden's heart
Began to beat and flutter:
Each beau would take his sweetheart out
Sleigh-riding in cutter.
Or, il the storm was bleak and cold,
The girls and beaux together
Would meet and have the best Of fun,
And "never mind the weather."
But now-indeed it grieves me much
The circumstance to mention
However kind the young mana heart
And honest his intention,
He never asks the girls to ride
But such a man is Gagged;
And if he sees her once week
Why, sure "they're engaged"
