Whatever you have to say, my friends,
Whether witty, grave or gay,
Condense as much as ever you can,
And say 1t In the readlest way;
And whether you write on rural Rfialrs,
Or particular things In town,
Just word OF friendly advice
Boil 1t down.
For II you go splutteTing over page,
When couple Of lines would do,
Your butter Is spread so much, you see,
That the bread looks plainly through.
So Wien you have stery to tell,
And would like little renown,
To make quite sure of your wish, my friend.
Boil 1t down.
When writing an article for the press,
Whether prose or verse, lust try
To utter your thoughts In the fewest words,
And let 1t be crisp and dry;
And when 1t Is finished and you suppose
1t Is done exactly brown,
Just look 1t over again, and then
Boil 1t down.
For editors do not like to print
An article lazlly long, H
And the general reader does not care
For couple OF yards of song;
So gather your wits In the smallest space
II you'd win the authors crown,
And every time you write, my friend,
Boil 1t down.
