By Jove! they’ll have to send that bill
For ever and for ever!
Ah, me! that morn at Whiteley’s mart;
What time I said, “I think, sweetheart,
That you and I had better part
For ever and for ever!”
A luckless speech with dire effect;
My new silk hat at once was wrecked!
That moment I shall recollect
For ever and for ever!
