A LITTLE NONSENSE.
NEW MEANINGS.

Our language undergoes a change.
As most things do,
And words assume wider range
With meanings new.
An instance is before you laid;
A man was talking with a maid.
He asked the damsel II she'd fly
With him some day.
She asked the man to specify
Or plainly say
Just what he meant; that is, to state
Whether elope or aviate.
