THE TRANSIT OF VENUS.
Poor Tenus ia really suspected Of using her influence so, i That weather is greatly affected, But whether it is, I don't know. I fancy she can't have a stiver, i Although it may seem rather strange : Why doesn't she fend us a fiver, Listen d of allowing tin's change? A waltzing nor'-westorlj quester, Which makes you too hot to be nieo, Slides round to a southerly buster, Rains hard, and seems colder than ice. We first have to stand the cold water, And then to put up with a"blow, She isn't as good as I thought her, Her reign's raining over us so. Thoy toll us thi9 goddess of beauty . Will go none fclie face or tlie s(o)n r He csnno'. doubt whn,l is his duty, ; I shouldn't, if I were the one.
