MDMD(3): 80.24 `Younkers'

>> 80.24 `Younkers' E16 f M Du a youngster or youth

Thinking about that line
 "we'll go to Yonkers (Westchester Co., NY)
where true love conquers
in the wilds"---

Younkers! Stoep? 
Just a few letters from more familiar
forms.  A point much made but worth saying again--
 ol' Pynch is often showing us how close 
and familiar are things South African and things American,
both now & in those wild colonial days.
