DEACON DAY AND THE HIGHWAY
COW

The best q bein's will hey their cares
There's alwuS sumpthin' to cross our way,
10 worry an fret us in our affairs
An Scri was the lot q old Deacon Day:
He he'd his trlalS-i'll tell YOU how,
He WAS tempted an tried by Il highway COW.
The hue % her hide WIS dusky brown:
Her body wis lean, an her neck was slim:
One horn turned mp, an the other down:
She WIS sharp o sight, an wis long o limb,
With peaked nose, an a short stump tail,
An ribs like the hoops on a homemade pail.
Many day he'd She passed in pound
Fur meanly helpin herself to corn.
Many Il cowardly cur an hound
He'd been trausiiXed by her crumpled horn.
Many Il TEAPOT an old tiu-pail
He'd the farm boys tied Ia her Stumpy tail.
bid Deacon Day was plnuS man,
\ frugal farmer, upright an plain.
I'm many Il weary mile he ran
To drive her out q his CROWN grain.
Sharp We're The FRANKS that She used to play
To git her fill and IL git away
He used to sit on the sabbath day
With his open Bible upon his knee,
Thinkiu o loved ones far away,
In the Better Land that he lougcd To see
When Il distant hcllcr. borne thro' the air.
Would bring him back to this world o care.
When the Deacon went to his church in
town.
She watched an waited till he went by.
lie never PASSED her without u frown,
An an evil CLEAN in cacn angry eye
He would crack his whip, an would heller,
Whay.'
FL he drove along in his "one-horse shay
Then At his homestead she loved to call,
liftin his bars with her crunpled horn,
Nimbly Scalin' his garden wall,
Helpn' herself To his Standin' corn,
Eatin' his cahbageS one by one-
Scamperin' home when her meal was done.
Ofen the Deacon homeward came,
Hummin Il hymn, from the house . prayer,
His kindly heart i'll Il tranquil frame,
His soul eZ calm ez the eVenin' air.
His forehead smooth ez II well-w plow-

His human passions We're quick to rise,
An >tridin' forth with Il savage cry,
With fury hlazin' from both his eyes,
lIz lightnin's flash in il summer sky,
Rrdder an rcdlrr his face would grow,
An after the crittcr lie would 90
over his garden, round and round,
Breakin' his pear an apple trees
Tr;,mpinG his melons into the ground,
Tippin' over his hives o. bees,
Leavin' him angry an badly Stung,
Wishn' the old cows neck was run-.
The moSSeS grew on the garden wall:
The years Went by, with their work an play
The boys o the village grew strong and tall,
An the gray-haired farmers dropped away
One by one eZ the red leaves fall
But the highway COW outlived EN- all.
The things we hate are the last to fade:
Some cares are heightened thro' many years,
The death o the wicked seems long delayed,
But there is climax to all careers,
An the highway COW ut laSt.was slain
In runnin' IL race with Il railway train.
All into pieces ut once she went,
Jest like savinS banks when :hry fail;
put O the world she was swiftly sent;
Leetle was left but her own stump tail,
The farmers gardens an corn fields NOW
Are haunted no more 10y the hlghw ~ COW.

Spell plenakistoscope and knell
Or take some simple word as chilly,
Or guager, or the garden lily,
To spell such words as syllogisn,
And laehrymose and synchronism,
And Pentateuch and sacchsrine,
Apocrypha and celadine,
Lactiierous and cecity,
Jejune and homeopathy,
Paralysis and chiorotorm,
Rhinoceros and pachyderm,
Metempsychosis, gherkins, basque,
Is certainly no easy task.
Kaleidoscope and Tennessee,
Kamtschatka and dispensary,
Diphthong and erysipelas,
And etiquette and sassafras,
Infallible and ptyalism,
Allopathy and rheumatism,
And cstaclysm and beleaguer,
Twelfth, eighteenth, rendezvous, intriguer,
And host of other words are found
On English and on classic ground.
Thus Behring Straits, and Michaelmas.
Thermopyle, Cordilleras,
Suite, hemorrhage, julap and Havana
Clinquefoil and ipecacusnha,
And Rappah annock, Shenandoah,
And Schuylkill, and a thousand more,
Are words some prime good spoilers miss
In dictionary lands like this;
Nor need one think himself a scroll,
If some OF these his efforts foil,
Nor deem himself undone forever
To miss the name of either river,
The Dnieper, Seine, or Guadalquiver.
