goodly array of people on the

knowing, while she pretends to
depise it, that beauty unadorned,
and so torth-she comes out in a
ravishing bathing suit that shames
the divices, the pads, the cures,
the outliner Of art, as the Venus
Of Milo shames candy doll.
And the cries 90, DEAR" in the
he picrcingest pathos asshe treads
on a smooth calm shell, and tiles
to look like Narcissc, and hopes to
heaven there is no ground swell or
sharkes in the two inches of water
running through her pink toes,
and then she wades out like
Aphrodite and looks up the bank

Jelly fish goes on to serene glory

from Dakota to see her.
