Ha! My dear! I'm back again -- / Vendor of Bohemia's wares! / Lordy! How it pants a man / Climbing up those awful stairs! / Well, I've made the dealer say / Your sketch _might_ sell, anyway! / And I've made a publisher / Hear my poem, Kate, my dear.
In Bohemia, Kate, my dear -- / Lodgers in a musty flat / On the top floor -- living here / Neighborless, and used to that, -- / Like a nest beneath the eaves, / So our little home receives / Only guests of chirping cheer -- / We'll be happy, Kate, my dear!
