Her bicycle she mounted;
And with a smile, ere she had gone
An hour, ten miles she counted.
It rained, it snowed, but nought could stop her,
Till in the slime, she came a cropper!

The date of the new organ given by the English is concealed in the lines of this inscription above its keyboard at Ober Ammergau—
QVI CHRISTI LAVDES CANTANT
SANCTÆ PASSIONIS SVÆ VIRTVTE
IN IPSO ET PATRE VNVM SINT.

A woman’s name
Of foreign fame,
Hers was a noble mind.
Now, sir, transpose,
And I suppose
No smaller thing you’ll find.
