(November, 13, 1869.) ' I "HREE little bottles came by express ; Two were stolen,* so there were two less.
We drank the last one of of the three In a merry, merry company.
Two for the pencil and one for the pen, One for the nightingale's throat, and then One who pours (as Jenkins says) Her soul on the keys whene'er she plays, What shall we say of the last? That she Is just as good as she can be.
* Namely, by the expressmen, a catastrophe not uncom- mon in our corporation-ridden country.
39 ANAC...REONTICS.
Our Western bard so learned and neat, And mellow and sweet, And brimming over with quaint conceit.
Who has sung us lays of every land.
On every theme from the light to the grand, Wishing well to me and mine.
Sends me this Sicilian wine.
Nine-and-twenty years ago, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow,* Passing delicate stems about, Poured this wine for Hawthorne out.
Carl Benson, (How we apples swim !) To finish the flask assisted him.
* It is to be hoped that the reader will appreciate the sim- ple beauty of this couplet.
