To see a man fish in a moat, is no news;
But to see a monkey shaving a goat, is strange indeed!

My lather is good, and
My razor is keen,
In two minutes time,
I'll shave you quite clean.

To see a miller grinding corn, is no news;
But to see an ox blowing a horn, is strange indeed!


[Illustration]

I blow and I run,
And I run and I blow,
And which I do best,
I'm sure I don't know.

To see a shoemaker hammer his leather, is no news;
But to see a hound and a buck drinking together, is strange indeed!
