My heart lies with his ashes—that’s my gait.”


Prizes having been offered for rhymes corresponding to “Ipecacuanha,” and “Timbuctoo,” it is to be hoped that the ingenious authors of the following verses gained them:

As I was walking in the grove

With my Julianna,

Some oranges I gave my love,

Pine-apple and banana;

And then, her headache to remove,

Some ipecacuanha.
