A MISSIONARIES FEAST.

Among a savage clan
OF cannibslish people,
A missionary man
set up his modest steeple.
And there each day he would
Pursue his noble labors,
He told them 20 be good,
And babe them love their ncighbors.
The cannibals, with grins,
Gave ear to themes he treated;
They crossed their tawny sbins,
And on their hams were seated.
And yet they were not lost,
That missionary's labors;
lie taught them 10 his cost,
The way TO love their neighbors.
For one day when for prayers
Those cannibals they met him,
They caught him unawares-
They killed him and they ate him.
They said they found him good
They'd prsctised what he taught them
And now they understood
The goodness he had brought them.
And when they flled each nav,
They said while they deplorcd him,
They loved him alive and raw,
And roasted they adored him.
