But we will lilt our serenade
To bright eyes flashing far,
And drink to Luce who jerks the juice
Behind M‘Whalan’s bar!
[143]
]WILL YOU LOVE ME THEN?
There’s a new chap born in the world to-day,
And an axe laid close to the root of doubt,
When I hear you speak in that soulful way
Of a love to last till the stars go out——
But, Mignonette!
