EN-. AND ARE OUT.
A BOHEMIAN ROMANCE.
In Three Parts.

By ". }. DAVIES:
PART ii:
Our hero was left at the window.
So stuiir]ed at the sight that lie saw
So changed Was the world all around hih
1t seemed like the resion below.
There's truth in the words that were spoke
Nearly two thousand years ago,
That ''heavon within us is lying,,''
And SO is ale kingdom below.
IT'S best he should tell his own story;
The same as he told it to ME;
I asked him how then he proceeded;
lie said ''Wait, my friend, till seer.
The truth is. my head is still mudd1ed;
How long remained don't know,
My consciousness came in the mCrflihg,
When walked from nightmare If wot
at seemed as if had been dreaming
| OF monsters and red-headed snakes:
That Emma was bound for destruction,
With no one to put down the brakes.
\ lady that called upon business
Was shocked when she saw my pale face
l told her viper had bit me,
And could not attend to her case.
"Like the Jew of the legend WANDERED,
No rest could find anywhere;
The boys said that was demented,
The ladies did wonder and stare.
Until now had been the leader
OF all the gay gath rings in town,
For | was the harp and the cyntal,
More funny by far than clown:
~ met thu,ii again iii the evening
Emma and the red-headed chap
A walking along on the sidewalk,
How | wished to give him slap;
passed with the lcOk of dagger,
But EN-. looked rs cool as you please,
Seemed as if she asked with her blue eyes
'What' the matter with you, Mr.. Tease 2
II then made my mind UP to play it
AS cool and Indifferent rs she,
And show her that she amt the last fish
There's plenty more left in the sea;
l then played it sweet on Miss Jennie,
And courted the rest of the girls,
And told them when EN-. was in hearing,
That they were most beautiful pearls.
g But, bless you, she laughed like one crazy
And seemed not to care the least bit;
Soon after, she whispered to "red HAIR
MY fellow has lost all his wit
1t stung me almost into madness
10 see all MY plans falling through,
Indeed was sorely in trouble,
10 think OF what tiext should do.
g There is NO understanding d wdnlan=
We may scheme and try every plan,
Like an eel size slips from our fingers,
With Catch ME, my boy, if you can:'
thought of number of brave men,
Especially Samson of old,
When he slept IN the lap Of Delilah,
And was to his enemies sold.
: I had made marty presents to Emma,
We exchanged our photos and rings,
But now III send back her old picture;
And tell her to send me- my things;
I'll write her sarcastic letter,
Pretending care not jot-
IF her or her redhsaded fellow
Whether school keeps open or NOT:
And this is the way shall write II;
Miss Emma NrA1anis,' says I,
Your conduct Of hate has surprised itse;
think must bid you goodbye:
find that the air of Montana
With me don't agree tefy Well;
shall seek some place where the ladies
Can always gentleman tell:
Therefore return You your picture;
And all other tokens have,
Which one time to me were so sacred;
Such charming sourcnirs of love;
sut now since the dream is all over;
feel like Il savage old SouS;
want the return of my photo,
And all other things 1 gave YOU.
''' ours, that was.
