Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Delaware Bride: And Other Poems The Delaware Bride The whipping-post, the whipping-post, I love you: you´re a dear! The whipping-post folks often roast. How whimsical, how queer! Men´s taste is such, They change so much. Shut up, don´t howl, don´t cry. Saw wood, you´ll soon know why. Don´t get upset; now gently, gently. Give me your ear - both ears intently. The day of the whipping broke clear and bright, The sun looked down on a wond´rous sight. Look! what is that crowd so patiently waiting? What means all this chatter, what are they debating? Why, haven´t you heard, it´s advertised wide - They are waiting to cheer the Delaware Bride. The Delaware Bride is a post made of deal, Dumb witness of many a sinner´s sharp squeal. All hail to the lash, give us gore, let it pour! All hail to the time-honored Delaware law! Pretty little Mabel was a teacher in the school; Pretty little Mabel thought she´s break the golden rule. First she wasted stationery, then she broke the chalk. To potent Superintendents was addicted to back talk. One foxy Superintendent, a man of great resources, Did not at all believe in the mild and middle courses. He brought her a stripe, Of the Delaware type.
