Picturing the Various Modes of Melodramatic Murder. ( By Our Off-his -Head Poet. )
No. IV.—The Over-the-Cliff Murder.
It may be this—that the Villain base
Has insulted the hero's girl;
It may be this—that he's brought disgrace
On a wretchedly-acted Earl.
I care not which it may chance to be,
Only this do I chance to know—
A cliff looks down at a canvas sea
And some property rocks below!
