We have come for our dinners, my dears!"

And the Queen of the Amazons fell
To BORRIA BUNGALEE BOO,--
In a mouthful he gulped, with a yell,
TIPPY-WIPPITY TOL-THE-ROL-LOO--
The pretty QUEEN TOL-THE-ROL-LOO.

And neat little TITTY-FOL-LEH
Was eaten by PISH-POOH-BAH,
And light-hearted WAGGETY-WEH
By dismal ALACK-A-DEY-AH--
Despairing ALACK-A-DEY-AH.

And rollicking TRAL-THE-RAL-LAH
Was eaten by DOODLE-DUM-DEY,
And musical DOH-REH-MI-FAH
By good little TOOTLE-DUM-TEH--
Exemplary TOOTLE-TUM-TEH!



The Periwinkle Girl



I've often thought that headstrong youths
Of decent education,
Determine all-important truths,
With strange precipitation.
