PARODY ON "BEN BOLT"

A PAhOUA ON DIN OOAA'
Don't YOU remember lame Sally John jones'
Lame Sally, whose nose was so brown!
Who look d like clam if you gave her q
smile,
And went into fits at your froVn!
In the Old goose-pond in the orchard John
Jones,
Where the goslings are learning to swim,
Lame Sally went fishing one wet, windy day,
And by piteous mistake tumbled in.
Under old SIMS brush fence, John Jones,
That winds at the foot OF the hill,
Together we've seen the Old camel go round,
Grinding cider at Appleton mill:
The .ulu-wheelis oven-wood now, John Jones,
The rafters fell out to u COW,
And the weasels and rats that crawl round
as you gaze
Are the lords of the cider mill now.
% you mind the pig pen oi logs, John JONES'
Which stood on the path to the barn,
And the shirt-button tree, where they grow
on the boughS,
Which we sowed on our Jackets with yarn:
The pig pen has gone to decay John Jones,
And the master who wore the old wig,
AMI the shady nook by the crook OF the
brook,
Where we played with Aunt Catherine
p.S:
Mice live in the masters wig, John Jones,
Taa nook with the brook now dry,
And the boys and the grls that were play
mates then
Haze alI gone 'rdy to Wisconsin!
