Employed in manducation of her lunch;

On a dessicated loaf she gave her appetite full play,

Which, with honey, was as much as she could munch.

The feminine domestic was just then in the parterre,

Suspending some habiliments to dry,

When a darkly-feathered victim saw her standing on a chair,

And amputated her olfactory.


Sing a song of Season,

Pockets full of naught,
