THE PIRATES!
The custom of the
young gentlemen holding
the young ladies'
hands on the Clarendon
balcony during the
evening, instead of
dancing in
the parlor,
has been
interfered
with by the
old ladies,
who keep
a close
watch nightly from the second-story
windows. One good old
Quakerlady, from Philadelphia,
sits up all night. She says
she's bound to be aristocratic,
if it half kills her.
It is thus that ravenous
wolves in sheep's clothing are
ever on the alert for the innocent
and unwary.
They were sitting side by side—
And—he sighed—and she sighed:
Said she, “You are my darling Luke.”
And—he—look-ed—and—she—looked:
Said he, “My darling wilt thou?”
And—she wilted—and—he wilted.
And—he sighed—and she sighed:
Said she, “You are my darling Luke.”
And—he—look-ed—and—she—looked:
Said he, “My darling wilt thou?”
And—she wilted—and—he wilted.
