Murray: Andrew MCrie<br />

Of many more gory than he—<br />

And neither visits to foreign coasts,<br />

Nor tonics, can ever set free<br />

Two well-known Profs from the haunting wraith<br />

Of the injured Andrew M'Crie.<br />

For at night, as they dream, they frequenJbly scream,<br />

'Have mercy, Mr M'Crie!'<br />

And at morn they will rise with bloodshot eyes,<br />

And the very first thing they will see,<br />

When they dare to descend to their coffee and rolls,<br />

Sitting down on the scuttle, the scuttle of coals,<br />

With a volume of notes on its knee,<br />

Is the spectre of Andrew M'Crie.<br />

ROBERT MURRAY<br />

THE CRIMES OF LIZZIE BORDEN<br />

Lizzie Borden with an axe,<br />

Hit her father forty whacks,<br />

When she saw what she had done,<br />

She hit her mother forty-one.<br />

I USED TO LOVE MY GARDEN<br />

ANON<br />

I used to love my garden<br />

But now my love is dead<br />

For I found a bachelor's button<br />

In black-eyed Susan's bed.<br />

c. p. SAWYER<br />
