A TOAST TO TOBACCO SMOKE by WALLACE RICE

First Line: A TOAST - A HEALTH, SINCE HERE WE ARE
Last Line: THE JOYS OF GOOD TOBACCO SMOKE!
Subject(s): SMOKING; TOBACCO; PIPES; CIGARS; CIGARETTES;
A Toast—a Health, since here we are:
The glory of a sound cigar!
Another, now that here we're met:
The solace of a cigarette!
A third, since now the time is ripe:
The puffing of a fragrant pipe!
And, lastly, let this be bespoke:
The joys of good tobacco smoke!
