A PARODY.
Tell nie, ye winged winds,
That round my pathway roar,
Do you not knowome spot
Where womon fret no more ? ,
Some lone and pleasant dell, 5 "' "
Some ''holler" in the ground,
Where babies never yeU,
And cradles are not found ?
The loud wind blew tbe enow into my face,
And enickered as it answered, "Nary place."
Tell me, thou misty deep,
Whose billows round me play,
K.now'st thou some favored spot,
Some island far away,
Vh;re wcury man can find
A piaco to smoke in peace
Where crinoline is not,
A nd hoops aro oat of place ?
The loud winds, sounding a perpetual shout,
Stopped for a while and spluttered, "You
gii oui. .
And thou, sereoest moon,
That with such, holy face
Dost lookupoa the girls
Who with their beaux embrace,
Tell me, in all thy round,
Halt thou not seen some, spot ,
Where muslin is not found ,
And calico is not ?
Behind a cloud the moon withdrew in woe,
And a voice, sweet but sad, rdsponded,
"Poh !"
Tell me, my secret soul 4 1
O tell me, Hope and Faith
Is there no resting place
From women, girls, and death ?
Is there no happy spot J
Where bachelors are blessed
Where females never go,
And man may rest in peace ?
Faith, Hope, and Truth best booms te
mortals given
Waved their bright wands, and answered,
"Yes, in Heaven."
