POEMS.
A DIALOGUE.
He.
I am in trouble, give me your advice.
She.
No, for I m sure 'twould not be carried out.
He.
It shall, I swear it shall, at any price.
She.
If that's agreed, what is this all about?
He.
How can I win a woman who is fair
And cold?
She.
Be colder.
He.
But she's proud as well.
She.
Be prouder.
I am in trouble, give me your advice.
She.
No, for I m sure 'twould not be carried out.
He.
It shall, I swear it shall, at any price.
She.
If that's agreed, what is this all about?
He.
How can I win a woman who is fair
And cold?
She.
Be colder.
He.
But she's proud as well.
She.
Be prouder.
