We herewith extend a most kind invitation

To you and your friends or any relation

To come to a party. This little silk sack

Is intended to furnish a good place to pack

As many pennies as you are years old.

We promise the secret shall never be told.

If Methuselah's age would be the right sum

Of the years to which you already have come,

If objections to exposing your age should arise,

One hundred would be a splendid disguise.
