-A PIAZZA PARTY.
The beauteous Sadies father
Has a newly painted front piazza -
H has a piazza.
When with dust and soot 'twas tainted
He had that front piazza painted,
That taintea piazza painted.
Edward called last night, perchance,
Arrayed in comely ice-cream pants,
Last mght-pixchance-in gorgeous pants.
Engaging Sadie in a chat
On that piazza down he sat,
In :hat-they sat.
And when the evening scarce had passed
He tried to rise, but, Oh! stuck fast.
At last -stuck fast
Fair Sadie shrieked, "It is the paint,''
And fainted in a deadly faint
This saint -did faint.
Edward sits there 'een this day,
He cannot tear himself away,
Away? Nay, nay.
Hh 1 pants are firm, the paint vs. dry,
He's nothing else to do but die -
To die oh, my.
