Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · leaf 134
Before a clock two figures stood, withcymbals and a drum, And one each hour went rub-a-dub, theother tumty-tum; These concerts, they would grumble, aretoo great a strain, we fear; Why, we re giving over eighty-seven hun-dred in a year! JUST FOR FUN. 1 21 … BACK FROM THE CONCERT. Mrs. Thomas de Catt—Were any gifts show-ered on you, after you struck the high C ? Mr. Thomas de Catt—Nothing of value, mydear; only a bootjack, two bottles, an oldshoe-brush, and three tomato-cans.
