THE IMPETUOUS BREEZE

AND

THE DIPLOMATIC SUN

A Boston man an ulster had,  An ulster with a cape that fluttered: It smacked his face, and made him mad,  And polyglot remarks he uttered:   "I bought it at a bargain," said he,   "I'm tired of the thing already."
The wind that chanced to blow that day  Was easterly, and rather strong, too: It loved to see the galling way  That clothes vex those whom they belong to:   "Now watch me," cried this spell of weather,   "I'll rid him of it altogether."
