Engaged.

I've sat at her feet by the hour
In the properly worshipful way;
I've carried her many flower;
I've read b her many lay;
Social battles with friend and with lover
For her sake often have waged
And now, from her lips, / discover
That she--ohl that she IL engaged.
One season we led in the German,
And one we were partners at whist,
On sundays we heard the same sermon,
The opera never once missed
We were generally winners at tennis,
Our skill at the target we gagged,
But difference between now and then Is,
For now she-for now she's engaged.
/ have carried her paraso DER her,
When we strolled In the deep-shaded grove;
Whole minutes I've dalied before her,
Assisting 10 button her glove;
AS she sprang TO the saddle my fingers
Her wee feeta moment have Gagged,
And the thrill In my pulses still fingers,
Though now she-though now she's engaged.
Docs she ever live over, wonder,
Tho night that we sat In the cove,
One shawl wrapped about us, while thunder
And windstorms and hail ragged aboveF
How, trembling, she hid her white face on
MY shoulder, aud how assuaged
Her fears by the story Of JASON
Does she think of all that when engaged2
On my walls hang her many mementoes;
That cathedral she sketched me in Rome;
IL was attcrmy camp-liie She sent those
SIX slippers TO welcome me home;
I've the letters she sent me ut college
In book all assorted and PACED
How delightful to read with the knowledge
mat now she-yes, now she's engaged.
| am going to call there tomorrow:
In her JOY she viii greet her old friend
without even shadow of sorrow
That tha ff,tnptlehft, bu 20,
And close in my arms ! win fold her,
No matter for papa ennged
Shall his wrath from me longer withhold her
When to me-'tis to me she's engaged?
