Too Troo, Too Troo.

Man that is married to woman is of many days and full of trouble. In the morning he draws his salary, and in the evening behold it is all gone. It is a tale that is told, it vanisheth, and no one knoweth whither it goeth. He riseth up clothed in the chilly garments of the night and seeketh the somnolent pareSoric wherewith to heal the colicky owels of his offspring. He imitatetn the horse er ex, ana draweth the chariot oi toe posterity. He spendeth his shekels in the purchase of fine linen and purple, to cover the bosom of his family, yet he himself is seen at the gates of the oily with one suspender, fie cometh forth as a flower, and is cut down. There is hope of a tree when it is cut down that the tender roots thereof will sprout again, but man goeth to his home, and what is he then ? Tea, he is altogether wretched.
