Quite right, Dr. ROBINSON, perfectly right,
No longer the need to repair to the Zoo;
No longer we'll see with increasing delight
The quarrelsome Monkey, the blithe Kangaroo.
But the "animal's interest" shall charm us instead,
Though it's scarcely a charm you've discovered,—at least
There's many a father who's pointedly said,
That his int'resting Babe was a "mere little beast!"
SEASONABLE BUT UNFAIR.—When you have to pay heavily for light refreshments.
