Selling the Dog.

He's tired OF the brute,

SO | sent in liner telling
Of how | was forced TO be selling
One thoroughbred mongrcl, cheap.
And buyers came hocking,
Bcll-ringing and knocking,
And The Boy said never a peep.
Then the fellow who came most often
Began to weaken and soften,
Till he finally said, "It's a salel
Your beastie is mine,
For I'm likin' him fine,
From his ear-tip down to his tail"
So went for the brute and found him,
With two chubby arms around him,
And tear-wet face in his wool
Yes, check to muzzle
And nose to guzzle
They layl and my heart choked full
