"
Of the last verse we can only say that it is an evident plagiarism of
the well-known juvenile poem, commencing,
"How doth the little busy bee
Improve each shining hour,
And gather honey all the day
From every opening flower!"
We confess, though, that we are unable to discover the "sweet thought"
that is to "suggest the way"
"In which to spend life's hours!"
Moreover, we believe it would be tiresome and monotonous to be occupied
"every day" in scattering "fragrant flowers," even if we were certain
that the lovely members of Sorosis would regard them with "tokens of
delight."
"We regard this Impromptu as a failure, and call upon ALICE, and PHEBE,
and CELIA, and other tuneful members of the Sorosis Club to come to the
rescue of their unfortunate sister--the perpetrator of the above verses."
