With half-cigar and half a smile,

Dozing in a half-and-half the while,

To dream and dream like yonder aged frog,

Which only leaves his hole, the smoky log,

To muse amid abandoned stumps near by;

Chewing Tobacco, here to lie

And see the waves rush up, our joy to share,

Clutching with eager arms the vacant air,

To grasp the sweets the scented breezes bear;

To give our minds up to it wholly,
