THE LAY OF THE MESSENGER BOY.
With letter crushed In his hand
With his face sufused with JOY,
In the midst of a ragged band.
Kneels the careless messenger boy.
Poke, shove. shoot.
While the colored marbles spin
And time flies by, and ganins hoots
AS players lose or win.
With n lie smooth as egg.
With tears that trcke down,
That messenger boy will beg
For grace when he gets uptown.
Howl, gasp, sob,
While the salt drops swiftly fall,
Holl tell OF thief who tried to rob
And choke him with shawl.
