A SUMMER WARNING.

IurD the force OF your deNOuOn,
Don't, as many lovers do,
Overflow with rash emotion.
But to Cupid's sweet DEGREES
Welcome if you must his fetter;
Plead your causes, but do not, please,
DO not write your love a letter.
Hearts are very apt to cool,
Other maids may seem inviting,
And a mans an awful fool
To commit himself to writing.
So refrain your ink to spill;
You will find twill he much better,
Speaking all burning words you will
But don't write your love a letter.
~ sssx -
Think of breach of promise cause,
Think of laughing so provoking,
Think of legal wits and pause;
They will turn your love to joking,
If you don't, you'll surely be
Take my word-her sordid debtor;
"Stuck and "stung" and ''up tree,
SO don't write your love a letter.
For these notes, when read in court,
Sound so very, very stupid.
Deepest feeling seems but sport;
Menus merely trips up Cupid.
Then be warned, or very sool
You'll lie sorry that you met her,
And you'll say, You silly spoon,
Why did ! write my love a letter?
