And laugh at the capers cut by the monk;

Watch the old clown who is acting a dunce,

And try hard to see three rings going at once;

Gaze at the ringmaster cracking his whip,

And watch the tight-rope artist skip.

I saw that circus, Yes Sirree!

Saw about enough for three.

LENT.

"Oh lend me five," the young man cried,

"My money all is spent."
