A BALLAD OF FRIDAY-
Anxious he met her there,
Just near the Chapel
Flurried in look and air,
Asked, while his lapel
Always he clutched hard,
Had, that night, leisure
She to go Pal-ward ?
Blushed she with pleasure.
Daily he left her thus:
Ere tea could spoil yet(
Worked he like any cuss
Fixing his toilet ;
Saw not His chum who
Hoping a shock,
Deftly, an hour or two
Turned back the clock.
Waited she wondering
Eight until nine,
Was it some blundering?
Loved he the wine?
Mad then and desperate
Went with another,
Vowing that soon or late
He'd face her brother.
Came he soon, unaware,
Best garments bearing
Finding she was not there
Set him to swearing.
When he reached home that night
Clock was as ever;
But, if one says aright,
Speak they now never.

1 am dying, Egypt, dying,
Ebbs the crimson life-tide fast;
And the dark Plutonian shadows
Gather on the evening blast;
Ah I counted, Queen, and counted,
And rows of figures massed
T'ill e'en my days are numbered,
And I'm counted out at last.

O, the Prof, is a talker,
His mind's full of Walker
And of weighty discussions that come forth
at will;
But the fact is quite plain,
Spite of Walk r, his aim
Is to never, no never,
Quit running
