But he got in the wrong pew,
Which caused the man to sue,
He sued in the pc eple's be4,
They only proved it a bull calf,
BY the court it was further agreed.
That he should ride a slow bteed.
And not go stumbling around In the dark,
He should know the gleworm by its spark.
1t was further agreed that he sho'd furnish
burro and a guide,
To take him to her side,
The blind leading the blind, 1t don't hitch,
For they'd all fall in the ditch.
o, darn me, what shall | do
I promised him who cannot WOO,
And then, you see, Ican'thave two,
For that would be bigamy.
And so | think I'll marry you,
Because, you see, your eyes are blue;
But will you stick to MT like glue,
TILL in the tomb YOU lay me
And SO we to the parson went,
And alive dollar bill l spent,
The only oneI hadn't lent,
And steered for matrimony,
While he, the trencherOus iend, began
To think himself an injured man,
So he made a break,
And vamooscd to Salt Lake,
Where ten wives or more he could take.
