These verses were composed by a certain Górmitch-Gormítzky, a roving poetaster, whom Alexyéi Sergyéitch had harboured in his house because he seemed to him a delicate and even subtle man; he wore shoes with knots of ribbon, pronounced his o's broadly, and, raising his eyes to heaven, he sighed frequently.
"I have crossed in many ships upon the seas And some of them were good and some were not; In German, P & O's and Genoese, But the Khedive's was the worst one of the lot. We never got a moment's peace in her For everybody'd howl or pray or bellow; She threw us on our heads or on our knees, And turned us all an unbecoming yellow." Athens is a small town but fine.
I shall censure no one in particular, although there is one boy who must set no more bad examples. No one spelled the words correctly Clinton Stevens the least of any making his average quite low; yet the prize goes to him. I will tell you why " as a chorus of O! O's! greeted her ears.
Mistress Mikaver was quite my leddy, an' was rinnin' frae the teen to the tither o's juist terriple anxious to mak's a' at hame, an' makin's a' meesirable. I windered that the cratur didna gae heidlang ower some o' the stules she had sittin' aboot; but she got through wi' a' her fairlies an' the tea maskit withoot ony mishap, an' we got a' set roond the table for oor tea.
They bore me to a banquet in honor of a brave lieutenant Carlin, of the "Vandalia" who stuck by his ship in the great cyclone at Apia and comported himself as an officer should. On that occasion 'twas at the Bohemian Club I heard oratory with the roundest of o's, and devoured a dinner the memory of which will descend with me into the hungry grave.
Before our departure there was a grand display of fireworks: O's appeared in every dimension and design, and a blaze of fire and Bengal lights in rapid succession kept us in a continual state of admiration. I received a little note from Jenny Lind. She is in Paris, and wished to know when she could come to see me. Therefore, it all came about. Jenny Lind came, so did Auber.
"What 'ill become o's when ye're no here tae gie a hand in time o' need? we 'ill tak ill wi' a stranger that disna ken ane o's frae anither." "It's a' for the best, Paitrick, an' ye 'ill see that in a whilie. A've kent fine that ma day wes ower, an' that ye sud hae a younger man. "A' did what a' cud tae keep up wi' the new medicine, but a' hed little time for readin', an' nane for traivellin'.
