In came a pair of small small arms, and sat down on the broad broad
shoulders; And still she sat, and still she reeled, and still she wished for company. In came a pair of huge huge hands, and sat down on the small small arms; And still she sat, and still she reeled, and still she wished for company. In came a small small neck, and sat down on the broad broad shoulders; And still she sat, and still she reeled, and still she wished for company. In came a huge huge head, and sat down on the small small neck. "How did you get such broad broad feet?" quoth the woman. "Much tramping, much tramping" (_gruffly_). "How did you get such small small legs?" "Aih-h-h!-late--and wee-e-e--moul" (_whiningly_). "How did you get such thick thick knees?" "Much praying, much praying" (_piously_). |
