A poem by James Whitcomb Riley

"Company Manners"

________________________________________________
Title:     "Company Manners"
Author: James Whitcomb Riley [More Titles by Riley]

When Bess gave her Dollies a Tea, said she,--
"It's unpolite, when they's Company,
To say you've drinked _two_ cups, you see,--
But say you've drinked _a couple_ of tea."
