TOASTS

231

Then wreath the bowl with flowers of soul The brightest wit can find us; We'll take a flight toward heaven tonight And leave dull earth behind us!

Love is the inspiring wine- Mingling tears and laughter; Marriage is the never failing Headache the day after.

To Woman: The fairest work of the Great Author. The edition is large, And no man should be without a copy. I wish thee health, I wish thee wealth, I wish thee gold in store, I wish thee heaven upon earth. What else could I wish thee more?

Once more fill a bumper — ne'er talk of the hour; On hearts thus united,old Time has no power. May our lives — though,alas! like the wine of tonight. They must soon have an end — to the last — Flow as bright.

Here's to the heart. Though another's it be; Here's to the cheeks. Though they bloom not for me. The Ladies: We admire them for their beauty. Respect them for their intelligence. Adore them for their virtue. And love them because we can't help it.
