And choggle at himzelf at dimes in hatching out a yoke;

Ontill von day his choggling stobbed—he'd tombled deep in lôf,

And he bassed ze dime vith gissing at a leedle vemale glôf!

Ubon two shpargling eyes he dink, von deligate cock-nose—

Dill zoon his dinkings vork him op mit gourage to bropose.

Zen, ach! zat nose vas dilted more, and gruel vorts she shpoke:

"I vill not dwine aroundt no heart vat shmells zo shtrong mit shmoke!

Vor you yourzelf I might, vith dime, bersuade myzelf to gare—

Bot nevare mit no ogly bipes vill I avection share!"

(Pause, and glance round your audience with a slightly pained air.)
