Tho youth had lingorod long
Uosldo his Miiry dour;
llor father, in his bod upstairs,
Got mad, as morn drow near
How could ho sootho tho groat uurost
Which surged in his breast?
With noisoloss stops and slow,
Ho ventured down tho stair;
Enfoldod in ouch othor's arms
Ho found tho loving pair.
It did not sootho tho groat uurost
Which surged in his breast?
Ho quickly got his boots
And put thorn on his foot,
Then kicked that gontlo, loving youth
Far out into tho streot.
Thus did ho sootho tho groat uurost
Which surgdd in his broast.
