So needful it is to have money.

And the angels in pink and the angels in blue,

In muslins and moirés so lovely and new,

What is it they want, and so wish you to guess,

But if you have money, the answer is yes.

So needful, they tell you, is money, heigh-ho!

So needful it is to have money.


C.S. CALVERLEY.

(1831-1884.)
