        They fell in love.  She kissed him and called him her “turtledove.”


        By and by, she convinced him that marriage would fit him like a glove.


        But before he could ponder the consequences thereof, she gave him a shove to

        vow to the Lord above.











                                            This is truly the happiest!        Oh, nobody told me before yet!
