ETIQUETTE by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: I LONG,' SAID THE NEW-GATHERED LETTUCE
Last Line: "SEE FIRST THAT YOU'RE PROPERLY DRESSED."
Subject(s): SALADS;

"I long," said the new-gathered Lettuce,
"To meet our illustrious guest."
Cried the Caster, "Such haste
Is in very bad taste:
See first that you're properly @3dressed@1."
