The Difference.

All IN the days OF long ago,
When grandfather a-wooing went
He looked gallant, tashing beau,
And with his Looks was well con-
tent
He rode beside my lady's chair,
With gracious salutation,
He vowed she was divinely fair,
And told his alteration
But now, aias, poor grandfather,
Would stand But sorry chances
OF passionatcly telling her
His bosom's sweetest fancies.
For since a wheel my lady rides
The bravsst gayest courtier
Would lose her. if he weren't be

A fairly rapid scopcher.
