DOW'S AGENCY, A LOCAL EPISODE One dark and gloomy morning I gazed across the street, When a surprising vision My startled eyes did greet! I ope'd them wide and wider To see what I could see, And there beneath the gas pump A man on bended knee. Intent upon his mission Had struck beneath it there, What seemed to all around him An attitude of prayer. Could heat have overcome him, Or unaccustomed" work, That this attempt to worship In one inclined to shirk! Did he this tall red statue Some Pagan God believe, And seek beneath its shadow His feelings to relieve? Or did he think Mephisto Had come from realms below, And that he'd better "get in line" A due respect to show? No wonder I was startled; Most' anyone would jump; For it was "Cob" a-kneeling, Beneath his red gas pump. The Dormouse. Gerry's.
