59 psl. - THE BOYS. Has there any old fellow got mixed with the boys ? If there has, take him out, without making a noise ! Hang the Almanac's cheat and the Catalogue's spite ! Old Time is a liar ! We 're twenty to-night ! We 're twenty ! We 're twenty ! Who says we are more ? He 's tipsy, — young jackanapes ! — show him the door ! —
