A Parody.

Some heartless wretch has been jpoking his
proboscis among the flowers of poesy, and goes
off in an agonizing parody on ben Bolt in
the following slashing style:
Don't you remember lame Sally, Joe Jones
Lame Sally, whose hose were so Brown !
Who looked like clam if you gave her smile,
And went into fits at your frown?
In the old goose-pond in the orchard. Joe Jones,
Where the goslins are learning to swim,
Lame Sally went fishing one wet windy day..
And there by mistake tumbled in.
Under old Sims brush fence Joe Jones.
That winds at the foot of the hill,
Together we've seen the old camel go round.
Grinding cider at Appletons mill
The mill.wheel is oven wood now, Joe Jones,
The rafters fell on to COW,
And the weasles and rats that crawl round you
as you gaze,
Are the lords of the cider-mill now.
Do you remember the pig-pen of logs, Joe
Jones,
Which stood on the path to the barn.
And the shirt-button trees, where they grew on
the boughs
Which we sewed on our jackets with yarn?
1.-THE pen has gone to decay, Joe Jones,
And the lightning the tree overcome;
And down where the onions and carrots once
grew,
Grow thistles as big as your thumb.
Don't you remember the school, Joe jones'
And the master who wore the old wig?
And the shady nook by the crook of the brook,
Where we played with aunt Catharines pig ?
Mice live in the masters wig, Joe Jones,
The brook with the crook is now dry
And the boys and the girls that were playmates
then,
Have grown up ever SO high.
There is change in the things I love, Joe
Jones'
They have changed from the good to the bad
And I feel it in my stomach to tell you the
truth
I'd tike to 60 home to my dad.
Twelve times twelve months have passed. Joe
Jones,
Since knocked off your nose with rail
And yet believe I'm your own true friend,
Joe Jones of the Hurricane Galel
