TO THE MERRY

Table of Contents

"Wisdom may not be confined

'Twixt covers of the dictionary,

Neither will it be defined;

Learning, you may quickly bury;

Wisdom—Soul and Life combined combined—

Lingers ever with the merry."

DEDICATION, 1905

TO THE WORLD AT LARGE

Table of Contents

This Little Book of Wisdom Great

It pleases us to dedicate

To that Rampageous Reprobate—

The World at Large.

Yet as we mark his Stony Phiz

And see him whoop and whirl and whiz,

We can but cry—O Lord, why is

The World at Large!

OLIVER HERFORD.
