From the Boston Gazette,
WASHING DAY.
Monday comes and with it brings,
What the damsels all will say
As they tie their aprons trings
This je the dreaded—
® Washing day.
Sunday night its woes begin,
Lovers, late then dare not stay,
Girls will hint it is a sin,
row’s— ;
And tomes Washing Day.
Up at day light then they leap,
Sgiled clothes together lay,
§adly view the monstrous leap,
Work enough for—
Washing Day.
Now around the tubs they stand,
Like the graces in array ;
Soap and dipper close at hand,
Useful things on-—
: Washing Day.
Short sleev’d gowns, and bosoms bare
They their beautious limbs display,
Pnadorn’d, more winning fair—
Choose a wife a—=
Washing Day.
1f by chance acquaintance knock,
Sally cries send all away,
Looking thus I'd Satan shock :
Not at home a— . .
Washing Day.
Should one heedless through them g0,
Ofthe suds he gets a spray ;
T'here’s no passing here below,
Learn the rules of S
Washing Day.
Then at noon the table’s laid,
Fat or famish then you may ;
Pish of Potluck soon is made,
Deainties none a—~
Washing day.
YWhen at last the work is done,
Dress’d at evening smart and gay,
With conondrum or a pun,
as 5 off A
Passes Washing Day.

for that is an advantage which all that en-
