" "There!" said the Deacon, "naow she'll dew. " Do! I tell you, I rather guess She was a wonder, and nothing less!
[Illustration] [Illustration: "She was a wonder, and nothing less"] Colts grew horses, beards turned gray, Deacon and deaconess dropped away, Children and grandchildren--where were they? But there stood the stout old one-hoss-shay As fresh as on Lisbon-earthquake-day!
[Illustration] [Illustration: 1800] Eighteen Hundred;--it came and found The Deacon's Masterpiece strong and sound.... Eighteen hundred increased by ten;-- "Hahnsum kerridge" they called it then. Eighteen hundred and twenty came;-- Running as usual; much the same. Thirty and forty at last arrive, And then come fifty, and FIFTY-FIVE.
[Illustration: 1855] [Illustration] Little of all we value here Wakes on the morn of its hundredth year Without both feeling and looking queer. In fact, there's nothing that keeps its youth, So far as I know, but a tree and truth. (This is a moral that runs at large; Take it. --You're welcome.
