THE LESSON OF HISTORY,

THE LESSON OF HISTORY.
On the sunshiny African isles u
Where the ladies light on their feet,
And under the mangoes did shimmies and tangocs
That far more risque than discreet,
Reormers would often arise,
Hold up their stern hands and procaim,
"Profaning the voodoo by dancing like you DO
IL blot on the Hotentot name"
But the tom-tom resumed
Its ryhmical, sensuous boom
The undulations and twists and Eyraons
Enlivened the tropical gloom!
In the land Of the Bashi BaIouks
Where they dance In the mannerof snakes,
With many quiver and shudder and shver,
And shocking assortment Of shakes,
Whenever a pfude happens BY
He cries, with Mortified glance;
"No modest young Busar would do things vulgar;
The law should prohibit this dance!"
But when he has gone on his way
And the music starts playing once more,
The shivef Of sinews and muscles continues
Exactly the before.
And co. when listen today
To the strenuous voice Of reform,
The statement advancing that up to date dancing
ID getting little too warm
We know that the youth of the land
Will pause with piying smie,
And dance sedaey and less intimately
But when they've reformed for q while,
From Zanzibar, Afghanistan,
Or Bankok, Belize or Brasil
Or Greenland or Lapland or China or Japland
They'll get more shocking dance still!
