Whist-clubs and salons new,
At which you'll see all Cambridge belles,
From twelve to forty-two.
If you are rich the mothers will
Get out their rod and line,
Advertisement
And quickly fish for sons-in-law,
And bait their hooklets fine.
If you are poor they'll be polite,
And smother you with wit;
They'll tell you all the bits of news
That round the city flit.
The girls know all about the "men,"
And all the college ways, -
Their brothers have been through the mill,
And acted in the plays.
