And the chimes were gaily pealing
Of the fremans fire bell;
The racket of day was declining,
One by one it died away
As voice from calling
Singing no, no. oh, hey!
What! stop this bitter evening,
! cannot, answeredno!

And now it is tattered and torn.

The money was not forthcoming,
And the " deUH ,cas to pay"
AT length Bill found some other change,
Rejoicing at the sell.
He started off for home again,
- Instead of going to-moonshine;
lie went back home among his friends,
But none knew Mr. Stokes;
Who had so strangely disappeared
With all his comic jokes.
But Satan still was in the purse
And begged to be let go,
His business suffered by the curse
And absence from below.
Say, Bill, if you will let me out,
Iii grant another year.
And you may live in earthly peace
Without an earthly fear"

And CRASHED his teeth with rage as he

Among his dryest chips.

And searched through every street,
But did not recognize his friend,
