Show I REMEMBER. I remember, I remember 'H The house where I was born, The stained-glass windows where the sun Came peeping in at morn; 'H My bed it had a canopy Of silk and lace most fine, And off of solid golden plates Three times a day I'd dine. I remember, I remember The pictures on the wall, By Rubens, Michael Angelo, And Titian, too, and all; And when an airing I would take, I had some stunning traps In which, with nurses I would sit, In costliest of wraps. I remember, I remember The statues in our park, Tho arbors, and tho fountains all jJ Lit up when it was dark; And mamma had such diamonds, Such bows, and hearts, and stars! And Papa had such splendid yachts, jH And lovely private cars! H I remember, I remember vH The parties they would hold, iHI The dinners and the dances, when The favors were of gold: For Papa was the president fH Of an insurance co., But when the public got too wise, 'H Our grandour had to go!
