II Won't BE Long Now!
HoLA, hola, my Daughter!

ii Won't BE Long Now!
HOLA, hoia, my Daughter!
Now eometh fIe Season Of weep
Ing and wailing among women
and Of gnashing Ct teeth among
men!
when turkeys are fattened for
the killing and pine forests are
hewn down to make a Roman
holiday
When nerves give way under
the strain, and digestions are
wrecked with the gorging!
When wise and gentle women
forget that they are civilized and
go forth to do battle AT the shop
counters and to trample one an
other down in the highways and
the bargain Easements.
When woman recklessly
squanders money which she can
not afford, upon trinkets which
nobody wanteth, and gifts Tor
those she hateth.
When a damsel seeketh with
agony of spirit and sweat of the
brow for the Perfect Gift which
shall delight her Beloved, yet
knoweth in her heart that NO
man was ever pleased with gift
from a WOMAN!
When man tormenteth his
soul and racketh his imagination,
to find an offering which shall
satisfy the heart Of a damsel, yet
shall leave him the whereWfthal
TO pay his tailor, his landlord and
his tobacconist.
When a bachelor looketh into
his empty heart and Wisheti1 sadly
that he were married nan--and
a married man feeleth his empty
pockets and wisheth that he were
a bachelor.
When a maiden saith in her
heart, "If he eometh not across
with the solitary and the avowaI,
NOW, then shall I know that he
hath escaped me- Then shall
know that there's is nothing IN
it,"
When the Bachelor guardeth his
lips and putteth a paddock upon
his heart, lest he weaken, and dis
appeareth from the sight OF the
women!
When the church bells ring
merrily saying: Peace on earth.
Good will toward men" Yet none
have mercy on the poor shopgirl.
