That dainty lady trimming by.

That dainty lady tripping by
How light her step, how bright her eye,
How fresh her cheek with healthful glow
Like roses that in Maytime blow,
And yet few weeks have passed away
Since she was fading day by day.
The doctors skill could naught avail;
Weaker she grew. and thin and pale.
At last, while in hopeless frame,
One DAY. she said There is a name
I've often seen-a remedy
Perhaps twill help; can but try"
And So according to direction.
She took Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
And every baleful symptom fled
And she was raised as from the dead.
