HAG NIGHT by JOSEPH SKIPSEY

First Line: LA, WHAT A NIGHT! THE HAG HAS SWORN
Last Line: AND NOT A BLINK HER BOOBY CHEERETH!
Subject(s): ANGER; NIGHT; BEDTIME;
La, what a night! The hag has sworn,
In hue to prove a chimla sweeper,
And did the North not blow his horn,
No star would dare to show its peeper.

How black her look! — Just like the rook
That on my idol's brow appeareth,
When, quite o'ercome with wrath, she's dumb,
And not a blink her booby cheereth!
