"BUT THAT'S ANOTHER STORY."
(Rudyard Kipling passim.)
Tom's uncle by his will
Left Tom in greatest glory.
There was a codicil—
"But that's another story."
Phil wooed a fair one, Kate;
She met him con amore.
The damages were great—
"But that's another story."
Hugh's rent (for an address!)
Was far and wide in ore.
His suite now costs him less—
"But that's another story."
Of readers not a few
Deem Rider Haggard gory.
We have Macbeth, it's true—
"But that's another story."
One Joseph was enrolled—
Though now a sort of Tory—
A Williamite of old—
"But that's another story."
Some maids would make it known
They'll wait till locks are hoary,
But wed for love alone—
"But that's another 'story.'"
