Said, "■ H'm ! " and flew to tell the rest.
And now if you should chance to see.
In field or grove, a Bumblebee, And hear him murmur, ^^ IPtn! " then you Will know what he 's alluding to.
79 I LOVE STORY.
He was a Wizard's son, She an Enchanter's daughter ; e dabbled in Spells for fun, Her father some magic had taught her.
They loved — but alas ! to agree Their parents they could n't persuade.
An Enchanter and Wizard, you see, Were natural rivals in trade — And the market for magic was poor — T...here was scarce enough business for two So what started rivalry pure Into hatred and jealousy grew.
Now the lovers were dreadfully good ; But when there was really no hope, After waiting as long as they could, What else could they do but elope ?
They eloped in a hired coupe ; And the youth, with what magic he knew Made it go fully five miles a day.
(Such wonders can sorcery do !) 80 Then the maiden her witcheries plied, And enchanted the cabman so much, When they got to the end of their ride Not a cent of his fare would he touch !
