from Leslie's Monthly
A St. Valentine's Day Tragedy
by Ellis Parker Butler

Oh! Montmorency Vere de Vere,
To think that one I held so dear
Should use a base deceiver's art
To trifle with my loving heart.

A brand new ten-cent valentine
With lace and hearts and verses fine,
I sent to show my love for thee
And in return you send to me
The one I sent to you last year,
Oh! Montmorency Vere de Vere.

'A St. Valentine's Day Tragedy' by Ellis Parker Butler. Illustrated by B. Cory Kilvert
