Would Knott.
Says Reuben Kn'ott ? as he edged near, In language buxning hot : "Matilda, do you love me, dear?" Says she : "I love you, Knott." "Oh, say not so!" again he cried, Oh, share with me my lot! Oh, say that you will be my bride 1" Says she : "I'll wed you, Knott." "Oh, cruel fair, to serve me so ! I love you well, you wot!" "I could not wed you, Reub," cays she, "For then I should be Knott." A light breaks in on Reuben's mind, As in his arms she got. She looks demurely in his face, And says : "Pray kiss me, Knott !"
