He uttered not of them : ( I'll pick you up And see you home ' ; nor was it their pooh- poohing, Their pensive and recalcitrant demeanour, That made his protestations all the keener.
'Twas Eve that knew how supper, once declined, Works more than many motor-rides to Skindles ; How youth soon wearies of the proffered rind, But hotly for withholden fruit enkindles Burning that flame to deities unkind, Which on the altars of acceptance dwindles.
'Twas Eve that played him, as men play the luce, Till... waning midnight bade her call a truce.
Now England's curfew tolled with equal doom The knell of all who plied the licensed trade.
Vain matches sputtered through the smoky room, As the scarce-scrutinised accounts were paid.
Vague shapes moved softly ; gorgeous in the gloom, Rustled and clinked each homeward-heading maid.
Lingered a remnant ; querulous to these, One spake unceasing : * Gentlemen ! Time, please ! ! ' 104 Last to depart, cajoled, upbraided, chidden, Jack and his party dawdled in the hall.
