Hot Day Reflections.

Somewhere the festive Eski-
mo is digging pathways through
the snow, and handing out the
language weird, while pulling
icebergs from his beard. His
feet are frozen in his shoes, and
he has ehilblains in his thews,
his breath is freezing as it flies,
and icicles are on his eyes. Alas,
his fate is dark and grim, / shed
some nineteen tears for him.
Gould he forsake the arctic
storm, and come down here
where he'd get warm, how glad
and grateful he would be, how
he would chortle in his glee! !!
Somewhere, on grim Spitzber-
gems shore, the natives thaw
out nevermore. They know not
what it is to sweat, rheumatics
is their one safe bet. If they go
out to get some wood their ears
are frozen up for good, and
presently they're, unawares, as
saulted by some polar bears,
and eaten cold, without a sauce
to make them less a total loss.
Their wivess and orphans sadly
go to seek the fragments in the
snow, and meet a frightful fate,
methinks; they're gobbled by a
wolf or lynx. How thankful we
should be, l wot, that all of us
are smoking hot!
