AUTO-DA-FÉ

Oh, just burning up some old papers,

They do make a good deal of smoke:

That's right, Dolly, open the window;

They'll blaze if you give them a poke.

I've got a lot more in the closet;

Just look at the dust! What a mess!

Why, read it, of course, if you want to,

It's only a letter, I guess.
