The Pipe.
A Parody of Barry Cornwall’s “The Sea, the Sea!”
The pipe, the pipe, the German pipe!
The short, the long, the meerschaum ripe!
Its odorous puffs without a sound,
They float my head’s wide regions round;
They rise in clouds and mock the skies,
While Baccy snugly eradled lies.
My hookah wide! my hookah deep!
I’ve that which I would ever keep;
