| Waar Bozzy Sai to Feux

UT of dreamland three children have come, as a fresh new day is dawning,
So sleepy baby must wake up too, for it is Christmas morning;
Here are Lucy and Jack and Fred and Felix, but Felix will lie abed.

o N® no,” says Bozzy, the shaggy dog, as he barks at his little master,
“Just look at the nursery clock, my dear, the minutes go fast and faster,
And presently the sun will rise, and mount to very noon in the skies.

 

i. UT in the parlour, when breakfast is done, you'll find a heap of things
That have come down the chimney, so Pussy Cat says, for Santa Claus has wings—
She saw him as on the hearth she sat; I wish I were just as wise as a cat.”

OW, oh! how quickly is Felix dressed in the clothes that Lucy brought—
Hair brushed, face washed, shoes blacked and tied—you never would have thought
That he could lazily lie abed; was it a/J because of what Bozzy said?
