These turtles, no doubt>
Very soon found out
That their claim to the flitch must be shaken :
They had children blithe as larks,
But all the little Clarks
Were mark'd with a rasher of bacon !
The Woodman s Hut.
To a Woodman's hut there came, one day,
A Physician and Dancing-master ;
11 This fellow's hovel must serve," said they,
" For the rain pours faster and faster."
Heigho ! fal de ral.
The Physician was proud, and toss'd up his head,
And scarce would the woodman mark, Sir;
" But, Doctor, we're equals," the woodman said,
" For we both of us deal in Bark, Sir."
Heigho ! fal de ral.
The master of Dance was as grand as you please,
Till the woodman cried, " How now, Sir I"
" You cut but Capers, — I cut Trees,
" And we all know the worth of a bow, Sir."
Heigho ! fal de rah
