SEASONABLE RHYMES.

sEAsONABLE RHYMES.
The time draweth nigh
When the harassing fly
In summer the wort of humanity foes
VIII skate up and down
On the smooth polished crown
Of tine bald headed man when he's taking a doze
When summer is breathing her sweetest delight.
ANA nature Is everywhere burdened with bloom,

To chase the mosquitoes all over the room.

from urban dust, and smoke, and heat, to flee;
To put aside the rollers of the rink
Ana sport among the rollers of the sea.
