o\Ke Cottare the Jorooks

HERE'S a little cottage by a little brook,
And in that little cottage, if you care to look,
Youll find a little boy, and a little girl,
With their eyes brim-full of fun, and little heads a-curl.

 

The little brook is shallow, and the little girl and boy

Sail’d a boat on it one day (’twas but a penny toy);
In they tumbled, flop—heels flying high o’erhead—

But that you cannot see, because they’ve gone to bed.
