know no lane but Drury Lane,
Where we should meet when clocks strike nine;
And what's the use, you stupid goose,
OF calling me your valentino!
You need not buy d silly sheet
OF tinseid note stuck Ger with doves,
Where idiotic creatures meet
To tell, in trashy verso, their loves.
Pm not u mild, raw schoolgirl now,
10 gusA with rapture at q line
So, It's no use, you stupid goose,
10 send me now Il Valentine.
Saint Valentines WORTHLESS saint,

We cannot live on cakes ana paint
In these expensive modern times.
Loves Offering now should take shape
Substantial, solid, sound and tine;
But tits no use, on silly goose,
10 post me as your Valentine.
On many things you might expend
Your money with much better taste
And if u pound on me you spend,
Don't that same pound on paper waste.
A box of gloves, scent-cass ian,
- brooch, a bracelet, gems that shine
There'd be some use, you dear OLD goose,
In sending such q valentine;
Think ere your money you invest
On Cupid, darts, or senseless dove,
He loveth best who payeth best
For useful presents to his love-;
"What present should you send I'm pain,
A plain gold ring is in my line!
There'd be- some use, you dear old goose,
In such solid Valentine.
