Almanac, 1847,
Answer to the Charade in our last,
Though the hermit eats herbs and drinks of the brook.
No sunshine no smile may be seen in his look,
Yet there is hope in his heart from above,
Though the false one so fair has made a breach there,
A voice whispers thus: GOD Is LOVE,
As the spring does advance the flowers seem to dance,
The pretty birds sailing along,
A chirping and singing their merry way winging,
They all seem to sing a new SONG.
But now for the whole that is chanted by Harry,
To Susan to Peggy or rosy cheek'd Kate,
He has done with his LOVE SONG & chosen fair Mary,
For better or worse the rest are too late,
BOILING Rock.
