He Took THE CAKE
A good girl-yea, pretty one
She sent an editor a cake,
And in his bosom gratitude
Began a little place to take.
But o! the cake had not been long
Beneath his vest before 1t fell
Af0ul the pie gone down before,
''Great BObi' he cried, Il am not well?'
The cake and pie they fought and fought;
The doctor came in booming haste,
And drugs at once went up in price.
o, ne'er was death so boldly faced!
The medicines attacked the pie;
The medicines attacked the cake;
Then pie and cake allied did fight
His many friends were at the wake!
