BALLADE OF CAMBRIDGE PAPERS! THE Cantab “to the interest ‘Of undergraduates ” is wed, Gimbles and gyres as one possessed On how the ’Varsity is bled.

The evildoer comes to dread Its scathing scorn, its charges true. It makes the heart as dull as lead Dance until everything is blue. The r…

…her face makes him faint and fall into the water. But Oxford getting fortunately shorter they could not quite recover the lost yard, and Cambridge consequently wins a hard-fought contest by two inches and a half; at which the people who had backed them laugh, and Bow gets his commission in the guards. Our authoress, who reels off yards and yards of fine romance, is far too serious to make the pun to her so obvious about his being still a Beau, undér the impression that we all pronounce the worthy who occupies the foremost thwart as if he were a…

…y would score the race, how Oxford drew away at Chiswick Eyot amid a most extraordinary spate of pocket-handkerchiefs waved wildly ; how Cambridge crept up with wave-dividing prow with even louder cheers; my sex forbids I should describe how seven’s stretcher skids; but, generously giving up his briar, Bow (who sits next him) with unwonted fire holds it in place with his divine white ivories; how stroke increased to 50, which is high—very!
