Gossip.
4 prattling gossip on whose tongue
Proof OF perpetual motion hung,
Whose lungs in strength of lungs sur.
passed,
Like her own trumpet made of brass.
Who with hundred pair of eyes
The vain attacks of sleep defles,
Who with hundred pairs of wings
News from the farthest quarters
brings;
Sees. hears and tells. untold before.
All that she knows-and ten tins
