Ellis Parker Butler - Partners

Love took chambers on our street br Opposite to mine; br On his door he tacked a neat, br Clearly lettered sign. br br Straightway grew his custom great, br For his sign read so: br 'Hearts united while you wait. br Step in. Love and Co.' br br Much I wondered who was 'Co.' br In Love’s partnership; br Thought across the street I’d go— br Learn from Love’s own lip. br br So I went; and since that day br Life is hard for me. br I was buncoed! (By the way, br 'Co.' is Jealousy.
