A boy named Fay had been sent to
market by his mother, and on his way

POETRY.
A Ballad ofiBurdens.
BY II. g. RUNNER.

The burden of Green Peaches. Very light;
ana all things poisonous in some strange way,
ana immature green apples, stolen by night,
And waterme0ns still less ripe than they,
And huckleberries humorous for day,
And grapes at which man his fun doth poke,
And fruits whereof there is no WORD to say:
This is the end of every fellows joke.
The burden of the Small Boy. Nay, come off.
Pull down thy vest, and weep, for verify
The youth whereat thou hast thy jeer and scoff
In his big days shall take some thought for thee.
In his big days thou shalt be made to flee.
Yea, like to one who hath the wrong man awoke.
Mad with heap'd wrongs and with shillalee
This is the end of every fellows joke.
The burden Of the 'Tater Bug Fat in spring,
,r, rat and serene among the youthful hills,
through all the luscious summer fattening
And whole and healthy IN the autumn chills,
Unmindful or the farmer though he kills,
Contemptnous of coal-tar and of smoke,
So that his photographic place he fills
This is the end of every fellows joke.
The burden of Things Amorous. These commence.
The maiden with the empty ice cream plate
The youth who hath but tweDty-seven cents,
The other youth who swingeth on the gate.
And thou shalt look upon the scene more late,
He shaketh ca pets, for the words are spoke
Also the mOther-in-aw shall be his late
This is the end of every fellows joke.
