CJje I=Uap, ns 27 I octor ' si l ream He knew he led a life of evil, And when his time had come to die. So of his sins to hear the judgment He had to travel to the sky. 5- Up the heaven ' s steps they w ' ent ; He trotted by the side ; Oh ! he wished that he had lived And some one else had died. Soon they reached the Judgment place; His heart went back a mile; A man came out clad in white, Said, Good morning — with a smile. He killed the people by the dozen, And when he saw in iew Angels coming after him, So things looked might}- blue. ' lien the Heaven both the}- reached. What doubled his despair. He saw a sign was floating through. Through the Heaven ' s mornin.g aii ' ' Your name and occupation. Sir, He roughly said to him. . nd opened wide the book of life Upon his sacred limb. He thought of rights he ever did. Perhaps to quiet his fears. But his deeds were overbalanced By the sins of vanished years. The sign was floating with the breeze Before his dizzy e3 ' e, AVith golden letters written on : No Doctor Need Apply. Soon he saw dark clouds gather On the bright and shinin,g sun, . nd the thunders were the signals That the Judgment Day had come. With a sword an angel came; Go with me. did say, For you shall be eternal hell . nd ne er-endin,g day. The chill that came then over him No human tongue can tell ; His chance of mercy he knew was s But now he knew it well. 12. Some lady rung the hell that minute ; It was forty-five past seven, . nd Doc woke up and was so glad That he was far away from Hea ' en. — Tractenberg.
