A CHARACTER by NORMAN ROWLAND GALE

First Line: ON MONDAY (GOD BLESS HER!) SHE MAKES MY HEART GAY
Last Line: SHE IS SOMETIMES A STRAWBERRY, SOMETIMES A QUINCE.
Subject(s): CONTRARINESS;
ON Monday (God bless her!) she makes my heart gay,
On Tuesday (Confound her!) she makes my heart wince:
To express her in fruits, 'twere convenient to say
She is sometimes a strawberry, sometimes a quince.
