UNCHANGED.
Long cons ago in a garden of old
A couple went strolling in innocent
bliss;
A masculine hand stroked some tresses
of gold,
And two lips created the very first kiss
The garden was Eden and Adam the man;
The maiden was Eve so bewitchingly
fair;
And cons ago in this garden began
The plant of the maiden with moth
ing to wear
The garden was like to the Hesperides,
The breezes were sweet with the breath
of perfume,
And many the gold belted manditti bees,
Who rifed the honey from flowers
abloom.
Rare quietude dwelt in each bowere re-
cess,
And no one as yet knew the meaning of
care;
Till Eve cast glance at her primitive
dress,
And sighed as she thought she had moth
ing to wear"
Eve,
The latter day daughters whose sweet
ness endears,
Have sung the old song in gay make
believe,
And ding-donged the plant into mas
culine ears.
The plant of the man who has roubtings
and fears,
The plant of the mortal who is loaded
with care,
May die, but we hear in futurity's years
The plant of the maiden with nothing
to wear
