A WIZARD.

Kind Nature is the Madame;
And the book whereout I spell

Is dog-eared by the brooks and glens,
Where I know the lesson well.”

Thus the little girl answered,
In her musical outdoor tone:
She was up to my pocket,
I was a man full-grown ;
But the next time that she goes to school,
She will not go alone.

A WIZARD.

’Twas a famous East Indian
wizard —
He could change a cow to a
lizard,
A fish to a squirrel,
Or, just by a twirl,
Make gold from a black hen’s
gizzard.

This clever East Indian wizard
Fell in with a Kansas blizzard;
They had a set-to,
And when they got through
He didn’t know “a” from “ iz-
zard.”
