The Bachelor Girl.

BE very careful not to call this lady an
old maid.
Unless you wish in dire contempt some
fathoms deep TO wade,
Emerging from a battle with her glanccs
somewhat frayed.
She loves to be bachelor and also be a
girl.
Although full forty summers DER her
head have deigned to whlrl-
So do not dare at her another epithet 10
huri.
She doesn't care TO live at home. but much
prefers a fiat
She has no fear Of burglars and would
even face a rat.
She always has a clear idea Of just where
she Is at.
It's fun enough 10 talk to her, when she
that favor grants,
Although you'll nnd she seldom will give
you much of a chance,
But IL you marry her look out She's
sure-oh, well, you can guess the rest.
