Ho. let the busy stream of life
Boil onward in it's restless rills.
Secure from all it's fuss and strife,
We gorge ourselves on pepsin pills
And mock the cries. and woe that wears
The lifelong struggle and the rush
For 10. the festive platter bears
The water glass and plate or mush
Come, brother, sit ye down with me
And pass the tasty birdseed riund;
And we win carol in our glee,
TIL roof and rafters all resound,
Uncork the stomach bitters there;
The graham cracker freely break;
And take a dose of ginger rare
To scare away the stomach ache
We hold high wassail at the board,
And fill out flagons to the brim
With filtered water we have stored
And seller fizz from bottles slim,
"Hi-lee Hi-lo!" Lift up a song
OF merTiment, my gallant men,
And pass those pepsin pills along,
And ope the birdseed box again.

a Tony-W Weasel race, Tony was sent
away 80 feet behind, with the disad-
