ONE TOO MANY FOR HIM.

Signor Smithini loquitur:—

Houp-là! Oh, it's all very fine

That there whip to keep twirling and cracking,

But with such a trio as mine

There's no very great fun in "bare-backing."

Two of them, I'm sure, were enough

To keep—in this Circus—in tether.

A third you must thrust in!—what stuff!
