PANIC

Who stands in front of the Almanack
To show his interior plan.
The Scorpion attacked the Bull,
The Bull aroused the Lion ;
The Crab by their tails
Flung the Fish in the Scales,

The Billy Goat went for the Gemini twins ;

And a narrow escape had the Virgo's shins
From the shaft of her beau Sagittarius.

THE END OF IT
A WHOLE-TAIL dog, and a half-tai!
dog,
And a dog without a tail.
Went all three out on an autumn day
To follow a red-fox trail.
But the dogs that carried their tails along
Fell out, it is said, by the way ;
And the loss of a tail and a half at the end
Of the dogs put an end to the fray.
When each, as a morsel sweet, gulped down
What had late been a neighbor's pride,
" You Ve kept your tails," laughed the no-tail
dog,
" But you wear them now insider

And blushed a rosy red
Before her fairer light.
He brought a Rose; and lo,
The crimson blossom saw
Her beauty; and in awe
Became as white as snow.
