THE GIRLS.
A PARODY ON "THE SNOW


Oh! the girls, the beautiful girls,
With the liquid eyes and the golden curls,
Sailing along through the crowded street,
Turning the heads of the youths they meet.
Tilting. ~
Skimming along;
Beautiful giils, they can do nothing wrong.
Ihe blush of the rose on each soft, dainty
cheek,
In which lovely dimples play hide and-go-
seek;
Showing their ankles and little above,
Pure as an angel, tickle as love. -..I
Oh! the girls, the beautiful girls,
How the boys gather and sigh as each whirls
Her tilter along at delicate hight, 7a
Just skirting the beauties forbidden to sight.
Tripping,
Laughing,
Hurrying by;
With smile on the lip and coy glance of the
eye.
And the little dogs bark and with joyous
bound
Snap at the filters that eddy around;
The town is alive and each heart in whirl
To welcome the coming of each lovely girl.
How lovely they look as they teeter along,
HaIling each other with kisses and song,
And past poor fellow like meteors fash by,
Bright for moment, then lost to the eye.
Rigging, l9{ Ht
Swinging,
Dashing they go,
Disregarding the breeze that plays havoc be-
low.
With long floating trail, as pure the sky.
To be trampled in mud by the crowds rush.
ing by; S-
To be trampled and tracked by dozens fleet
Till it blends with filth in the horrible street.
Once tripped up on tilter and fell %
Just as passed gayly dressed belle. ---,
Fell, and my beaver rolled outin the street
Fell, to be scoffed at and jeered at and beat.
Scrambling, .s aia
Cursing.
Dreading to rise,
And afraid. on my soul, to open my eyes,
Above and around me the broadest expanse
Ofhoops that e'er tilted in giddy round dance.
Wildly at last 1 darted without, al
And dashed down the street as the boys
raised shout. 'eilit iot.- 'iIl-'L
Once was green as the greenest Of leaf,
Nothing too big to exceed my belief;
Every girl laughed at my innocent grace,
And vowed that looked at naught else but
her face. ..--
Greenness,
Credulity, tliH
i .--- Grace and all,
Shame and my bushes lost by that fall
l learn nothing new as the girls saunter by.
And tilter their hoops-no matter how high,
For all that's within or without know,
Since I tripped on that til,cr and made such
a go.
How strange if that patent heaving bosom Of
snow "
Should fall at her feet on the pavement be-
low!
How strange if that pile of tightly bound
tresses
Should roll down her back from the head it
depresses
Painting.
Freezing
Rushing ahead,
Unmlndful of all save the beauties thus shed.
The filters dropped off and left far behind;
The little lace bonnet flying off in the wind !;
But the worst of mishaps (they do nothing
by halves), ..--..-rr
How strange if, in running, she'd drop her
false calves ,-.t.. -,.--.- ,-,-
