Vintner to the cellar, and procure A wine as bright as she (and as mature !) 26 THE MUSE IN MOTLEY "ALL, ALL ARE GONE, THE OLD FAMILIAR FACES. " THERE was a time when we were wont to sit With pipe in mouth and paper in our hands, And roar as coloured minstrels flashed their wit Across the yellow sands. What did we care if ancient jests they told What cared we though we chanced to recognise Among the tinkly banjo's notes the old Three-chord trick in disguise ? We shared our praise 'tween one who...se welcome tones Completely drowned the corner-man's guitar, And one who tapped the would-be funny " Bones " That never seemed to jar. Then swift transition from the humerus What " loud collisions of applauding gloves " Welcomed dear, sentimental Uncle Gus Who sang his Dinah's loves. "ALL, ALL ARE GONE, " ETC. 27 Now all is changed. Harmoniums profane The " pitch " once sacred to the tambourine ; Pierrots usurp their dusky brothers' reign, And desecrate the scene. No longer does the natty seaside lass Lend to that troupe her sympathetic ear, While Algernon, her love (like Lycidas), Forgets to leave his pier.
