66 HOW TO DO A RECHAUFFE There! dry your eyes, my lass, put on A pretty costume to surprise him, Don’t wait till he is really gone! (Like Ahab did, on Mount Gerizim). Don’t read “ Félise” or any thing That naughty Mr Swinburne scribbles ; The human heart with love enring ; Don’t dig right into it with dibbles! Good luck, my lass, you now your way can see! —I feared she might have taken me to Replenish the unusual vacancy ; And I have other things to see to.

…e are all wise men that the score of life is at Love-all. So we twain will sing together ;— Spring regilds her coronet; Summer comes and don’t go neither, [This line is neither grammar nor rhyme, I'm afraid ; it’s my mistake entirely, I took a perfectly absurd word to begin with, and after getting as far as this it would be a pity to turn back; the rhymes’ll get worse for certain, so don’t be surprised if they do, but I haven’t lost hope of sticking to grammar yet.] It is goodly and glad to see Gilbert express his poetic regret.

BALLADE OF THE NEW HUMOUR WHEN you at ninety paces Fill up a snipe with shot, Find dons with pretty faces, “ New” dramas with a plot, Find money on a Scot, Find beauty in a bloomer— We'll read your little lot And label it as humour. You think to break our braces With hidden jokes and hot ; Kick over manners’ traces, Reins tangle in the knot Of Boredom—Never trot Your spavined mare, but groom her! You snigger at a sot, And label him as humour. Some pseudo-bloods at races, Some scholar’s polyglot, Some torpid Don’s grimaces, Some spouting Hottent…

…tal pabulum I like to be a ruminant, Not gobble up too hastily my fodder ; My mind is busy as a bloomin’ spider or a bloomin’ ant, But I don’t despise the necessary plodder. I’m assured by all who know me I’m a most transcendent genius ; I’m as clever as a Cayley or a Newton ; I breast the tape with Kelvin, and with Ramsay, and Arrhenius, But I copy the stolidity that’s Teuton. I envy not the lightning of the insight of an Oscar Wilde ; My mental motto is Festina lente; I might have made the eminent composerman of “ Tosca ” wild, I admit that I…
