WOMAN and
...SOCIETY...

That a man is half in Heaven
When he has a woman's kiss;
But there is danger in delaying
And the sweetness may forsake 1t;
So 1 tell you, bashful lover,
If you want a kiss, why take 1t.
Never let another fellow
Steal a march on you in this;
Never let laughing maiden
See you spelling for kiss;
There's royal way to kissir~
And the jolly ones who made it
Have motto that is winning,
If you want a kiss, why take it.
Any fool may face cannon,
Anybody wear crown,
But a man must win woman,
If he'd have her for his own.
Would you have the golden apple
You must find the tree and shake it
If the thing is worth the having
And you want a kiss why take it.
Who would burn upon desert
With a forest smiling by
Who would give this sunny weather
For a black and wintry sky?
Oh / tell you there Is magic.
And you cannot, cannot break it,
For the sweetest part of loving
IN " WANT q Mss, anu lane IL.
