Tell us not in mournful
numbers Coal is but an
empty dream, as our bins have
quite some tons in and
things are not bed’s they
seem. Some enjoyment and
sonic sorrow seems our des-
tined fate each day but we
strive that each tomorrow
finds more cool is bound this
way. Gold, is real, cold is
earnest and the grave will be
your goal if you do not seek
protection by the housing of
some coal. You should then
be up and doing, buy some
coal at any rate, for the
Winter is pursuing and we
have not long to wait.
