To The Rev. A. A. In The Country From His Friend In London.

Topics: classic

(AFTER HEINE.)     Thou little village curate,          Come quick, and do not wait;     We'll sit and talk together,          So sweetly tete-a-tete.     Oh do not fear the railway          Because it seems so big--     Dost thou not daily trust thee          Unto thy little gig.     This house is full of painters,          And half shut up and black;     But rooms the very snuggest          Lie hidden at the back.                 Come! come! come!
