A BON MOT.  On a Lady's Wedding being on the 21st of
December.
  Return'd from the Op'ra, as lately I sat,
  Indiff'rently chatting of this thing and that,
  My Chloe I ask'd how it entered her head,
  To fix on St. Thomas, of all days, to wed?
  To which she replied, with reason the strongest,
  "Tho' shortest the day is--the night, Sir, is longest."
