GEORGE S. CHAPPELL
With Decorations by Hogarth, Jr.
T HEARD you sing,—dear Golden-throat!
And every note
Set my imprisoned dreams afloat.
Your vocal grace
Brought down the house—and blushes to my face. "Fly, little letter,—fly apace!"
And then I met you,—and the note You wrote
Went straight to protest, in my husband's coat. "Fly, little letter . . . very fly,"
Bringing the house down on my guilty head.
Nor may I now pursue, along Broadway The even tenor of my matinee.
