Sure Cure for Unrsquited Love.

OF all the bitter feelings that are sent us
from above,
The bitterest of these is that Of unrequited
love.
At first, the anguish that you feel IS
difficult to abide,
Aud desperation fills your heart with
thoughts Of suicide
But calmer cOunsels will prevail, and
with a stihed Sigh
You suffer on in silence, or perhaps you
vainly try
To down the throb5ings Of your heart in
dissipatiOn's whirl
But those throbbIngs never cease until
you get another girl.
