TOM TO NED.

TOM TO NED.
Dear Ned, no doubt you'll be surprised
When you receive and read this letter;
I've rallied against the married state,
But then, you see, Iknew no better.
I've met lovely girl out here,
Her manner iS-well-very winning:
We're soon to be-well-Ned my dear,
I'll tell you all from the beginning.
Invent to ask her out to ride
Last Wednesday-it was perfect weather;
She said she couldn't possibly
The servants had gone off together.
Hibernians always rush away,
At cousins funerals to be looking;
Pies must be made, and she must stay,
She said, to do that branch of cooking.
''Oh, let me help you,'' then I cried;
''I'll be cooker, toO-how joly!"
She laughed, and answered, with smile,
"All right! but you'll repent your folly,
For shall be tyrant, sir,
And good hard work you'll have to grappie.
So sit down there, and don't you stir.
But take that k nife and pare that apple.'
She rolled her sleeve above her arm
That lovely arm so plump and rounded;
Outside the morning sun shone bright;
inside, the dough she deity pounded.
Her little fingers sprinkIed flour,
And rolled the pie-crust up in masses;
passed the most delightful hour
Mid butter, sugar and molasses.
With deep reflection her sweet eyes
Gazed on each pot and pan and kettle;
She sliced her apples. filled her pies,
And then the upper crust did settle.
Her ripping waves of golden hair
In one great coil were tightly twisted;
But locks would break out here and there,
And curl about whereer they listed.
And then her sleeve came down. and
Fastened it up-her hands were doughy;'
Oh, did take the longest time
Her arm, Ned, was so fair and snowy.
She blushed and trembled and looked shy;
Somehow that made me all the bolder;
Her arch lips looked so red that +
Well-found her head upon my shoulder.
We're to be married, Ned, next month;
Come and tend the wedding revels;
really think that bachelors
Are the most miserable devils
You'd better seek for some girls hand,
And if you are uncertain whether
You dare to make due demand,
Why just try cooking pies together.
