To you, with the kindest of care.

And so, while you're playing,
Think of father, who's paying,
And mother, who's working so hard;
While you kneel on your knees,
Or climb up the trees,
Or make your mud pies in the yard!

_CHEATING_


I thought I saw a little Goop
Who didn't pay his fare;
I looked again; the passengers
Were gazing at him, there.
"They think that he's a thief!" I said;
"I wonder does he care?"
