SELECTED TOASTS,
Then to this Flowing Bowl did I a dj o urn, My lips the secret well of life to learn; And lip to lip it murmur'd " V\lhile you li ve, Drink! fo r once dead , y ou never s ha ll return ." - Oma r l\:h ayyam . Happy days .
Set them up again. H ere's loo king at you. Drink hearty .
Ne ver min d the knockers ; Go a head a nd ma ke your play ; They're in every worker 's way. Ne ver mind the knockers. Every one who see ks to shine, If s uccessful, t hey ma li gn ; 'Tis of fame a certa in sign. N ever mind the knockers. They strike only those who climb ; Never mind the knockers. 'Tis success they deem a crime, Never m ind the knockers. If they h ammer a t your n ame Then be sure yo u 're in the game. 'Tis a species of accla im. Never mind the knockers.
H ere 's to your health , Let's have a nip. 94
