"A young gentleman who had been
TO see his dulcina last Sunday night,
was heard, upon returning, to repeat
the following beautiful stanzas:
"when the rose buds dream OF the dreamy
And awake to find their dear;
And the zephyrs, cool, in the tree tops
And the turtles voice you hear
When the tender buds and the leaflets
Float in the warm spring tide
And the summer sheen I'm the sky is
Somebody will be my bride.
Wen bet that young man had
popped the question.
