A Lecture Title

Now re the latest of Our Luncheon Lectures, The speaker lets me make My own conjectures.

A youth, replete of sighs And protestations, Who gazes girlwards— These are INDICATIONS.

Heedless of stocks and shares Or oil flotations, Love lyrics grace his speech With apt QUOTATIONS.

Seats for the picture show Deplete his coffers. Candy and gloves and flowers He humbly OFFERS.

And then his heart and hand To her he proffers; At last he's reached the stage Known as FIRM OFFERS.

Lest you should frown upon These lines in fun done, Please note that they've been passed By Mr. London.
