THE sEEDSMAN.
How doth the busy nurseryman
Improve each shining hour,
And peddle scions, sprouts and seeds
OF every shrub and flower.
How busily he wags his chin,
How neat he spreads his store,
And sells us things that never grew
And won't grow any more.
Who showed the little man the way
To sell the women seed?
Who taught him how to blow and lie
And coax and beg and plead?
He taught himself, the nurseryman;
And when his day is done, a
Wen plant him where the lank rag weeds
VIII hutter in the sun.
But oh! although we plant him deep
Beneath the buttercup,
He's so much like the seed he sells,
He never will come up.
