to watch the birdlets as they float
adown the breeze; | would like to see
the sunlight on the knobs and on the
flats, but the girls obstruct my vision
with their Merry Widow hats. When a
girl would cross a doorway people view
her with alarm, for she has to go in
sideways, with her head beneath her
arm: when two madans take a ramble,
one on either side the street, they are
widely separated, but their merry hats
will meet All, the sorrow of the hus-
band who would kiss his only own! For
he has to do his kissing by long distance
telephone. In the church the merry wo-
men with their Merry Widow tiles,
drive their melancholy husbands to the
middle of the aisles; in the home the
weeping father seeks the cellars quiet
gloom, for upstairs Merry Widow head
gear takes up all the room; there he's
joined by all his neighbors who unite in
crying "Ratsp' when the conversation
touches ON those Merry Widow hats.
