- 26. The Fatal Wedding by Gussie L. Davis The wedding bells were ringing on a moonlit winter's night The church was decorated, all within was gay and bright. A woman with a baby came and saw the lights aglow, She thought of how those same bells chimed for her three years ago. I'd like to be admitted, sir, she told the sexton old Just for the sake of baby to protect him from the cold. He told her that the wedding was only for the rich and grand, And with the eager watching crowd, outside she'd have to stand. While the wedding bells were ringing, While the bride and groom were there, Marching up the aisle together, While the organ pealed an air; And tales of fond affection, Vowing never more to part, Just another fatal wedding, Just another broken heart.
