PROUT

My poor dog! here! of yesterday's festival-cake

Eat the poor remains in sorrow;

For when next a repast you and I shall make,

It must be on brown bread, which, for charity's sake,

Your master must beg or borrow.

FIELD

There, there, poor dog, my faithful friend,

Pay you no heed unto my sorrow:

But feast to-day while yet we may,—
