DRINKING SONG BY A

·TEETOTALER.

I've been drinking, I've been drinking

Te intoxication's wige;

Do not chide me, for the tipple

Wasn't mentioned in the pledge. Nay, boievo uno, 'twas not brandy Brought the roses that you sce; One may got a ner crimson

From a purer ean-de-vic.

No, indeed, it was not claret:

That were something over-wonki Thuro's a vastly better vinture

For the painting of a cheek!..

Not Angolica, the nectar

By Loyola's children pressed For the Andalusian clusters

Ripened in the Golden West; Not Madeira, Hock nor Sherry-

No, indeed, tis none of these Makes me giddy in the forehead,

Makes me tremblu in the knows!

Nayowa it--'tis the honey That a favored lover sips All unheeding of the danger

From a pair of luscious hips. Thus it is that I've been drinking

To intoxication's cage, Till I marvel that the tipple

Isn't mentioned in the pledge.

For the taste is so enchanting

Tia impossible tu Boe Should it grow into a haber

What the consequence may be Well I'll heed the enge's lesann

(Pleasant, though it be in vain) And by drinking very largely

Try to sober me again
