In the intervening calm,
They sat on the veranda,
Beneath spreading palm;
And he whispered love in rapturs,
Alone at last are wei!
And she murmlred. Eyes, it's lovely,
But it's horrld when there's three.
''Aha!" laughed little Cupid,
AS he hurled final dart, M
Then gathered up his arrows Ri
And made ready to depart.
While shadow crossed their dreaming,
A cloud rose in their sky
The sumner night grew colder.
And each, sadly, wondered why.
Nor guessed at all the reason;
But the little love god knew.
And scoffed at human wisdom,
AS the tickle sprite will do
Alas! poor foolish mortals,
Perhaps you've never heard M
That threess delightful company
If Cupid is the third" Il. w.
