I hav shed menny a tear, without enny boddy knoing it, over some
mother's catch, or simple lulaby.
But this iz kalled mere weakness by the artistiks.
I hav seen wimmin in opera, and also hav seen them in fits, and prefer
the fits, for then i kno what tew do for them.
Yu must git sum proffessor ov musik tew answer yure letter, for i don't
kno enny more about klassikal musik than i do about being a
mother-in-law.
Theze are two very hard things tew komprehend.
I understand all about ice kream, and if yu ever kum down our way, we
will hav a bowl ov it together.
It dont seem tew require enny branes tew luv ice kream, and i dont kno
az it duz tew luv musik.
