SAD RETROSPECTION.

I used to know a married man who tolled from morn to night. And looked Just like an also-ran, A poor, down-trodden wight. Ha slaved and slaved and all ha cot Ha gave unto his wife, Who still complained about hpr lot And led him such a Ufa. . It seemed to him a thousand years, A thousand and a,, day. Since he made love to pretty dears , And threw his coin away.
