The Easter Bonnet.

Thou bonnet:
EN- bodiment of feminine delight
This is thy day
Thou art
1t.
Thou canst elongate necks,
And in trice thou
Turnest blue, black, brown oil
any
Old colored eyes to
Green
Every woman owes a debt of
Gratitude to thee,
And man
Is in luck if he don't
Owe more than
Fifty dollar debt to his wife's
Milliner.
Thou art bird.
A daisy-yea a whole
Flower garden!
Thou art
On top of everything,
And therefore thou art in
High feather, and
Man.
Proud man.
Is nought beside thee
Yet thou
Shalt be
Social outcast in that thou
Vert too gay
And therefore got thyself
Talked about
And thou shalt be
Laughed at.
Scornedl
Belittled.
Blasphemed, and
Everlastingly cut up,
Torn asunder,
And cast aside
By summer!
