AN OLD BACHELOR
What a pitlful. thing an old bachelor is,
With his cherries house and his rueful
phiz!
On a bitter cold night when the fierce
winds blow,
And when all the earth il covered with
snow,
When his fire is out, and shivering dread,
He slips meath the she cts of his lonely Ded;
How he draws up his toes,
All encased in yarn hose,
And he buries his nose
Meath the chilly bedclOthes;
That his nose and his toes,
Still incased in yarn hose,
May not chance to get froze!
Then he puffs and he blows, and says thaC
he knows,
No mortal on earth ever suffered such
woes,
And with Abs and with Obs,
With his limbs to dispose,
So that neither his toes nor his nose may
To his slumber in silence the bachelor goes.
In the morn when the cock crows, ana the
sun is just rose,
From beneath the bed clothes
Pops the bachelors nose,
| AS you may suppose, when ne hears now
the wind blows,
/ Sees all the windows froze.
| Why, back meath the clothes pops the poor
fellows nose;
| For full well he knows, If from that bed ne
To put on MS clothes, that he'd surely be
