BRALEY5 R0HM TO-DAY
THE PLANTER.

The Undertak er undertakes
To place US out Of reach OF aches
And all the pains and woes and things
That every year OF living brings
He puts US in place TO rest
Where not a worry stirs the breast
And yet-by solCe strange human within
We do not seem 10 care for him
We flee his presence, great and small,
Though finally he gets as all.
However much we like 10 ride.
We do not care TO get inside
His stately carriage draped in black,
Because he never brings us back
RefOrmerS often m axe a bid
For fame by putting on the lid.
But he's more thorogh, far. than they;
The lid he makes i 5 there 10 stay
And nary change OF politics
VIII lift ii of from where il sticks.
And so he plants u at the last
When all our worri ment has passed
And we have made with Mistress Fate
our final deal in real estate.
This planter gives 20 rich and poor
The only rest cure that is sure,
