Yes, men will lie and money, viii ~,
Dut fresting is no use,
Not even it tile Bank did 'sbust"
And Spencer did vAnose: .
We eaunot get our moncy oack,
Nor s0undly Hollop him
We might IS well serenely smile,
And own we're - taken IN. -
No use to storm. and rAye, and swear,
Nor fnurdcruus projects plan '
So we'll clutch o.r bank books drm and fa1tr
And Ie happy as we can-
