The Fruit that Never Fails.

Though crops may fail from year to yWNT And leave tus very sad. There is one fruit, it doth appear, That’s always to be had. In apples, peaches and in pears A shortage may be found, ; » v But constantly in life’s affairs 4 The lemon’s passed around. : ;S' It greets the simple sighing swain. It scares the soldljt bold. It bids the statesman oft complain And in flnapce *tis sold. Though drought and bug may prosi about - This sturdy fruit prevails; : 'i, ’Tis always freely passed about; The lemon never fails. • •• ii'A ->:■? ?■ •- 4 "-l- v- 'L ■' ' ■ *■-'
