And health would come his way,
He tries 10 make his roughly tumbled bed
A field of romp and play.
He's weary of the four white nursery walls,
And longs once more to be
As well as ROW he's feeling while he ma,lls
The patient cat in glee.
With spirits more than wild he overfows
Till all his pain IS fed,
And head-over heels along the couch he goes,
Or stands upon his head,
He rolls upon his blocks and toys until
He is mass of Jumps,
But he is overjoyed while with Will
His bulldog round him jumps.
His old green bathtub filled unto the brlm,
He gives the toys q drink
He gives the painted pasteboard ducks swim
Until they melt and sink.
Then like a soldier on his trundle bed,
Despite implorings vain,
ITpon his awful drum of gold and red
He thumps with might and main.
To catch on the rebound his rubber ball
TIE same he throws with vim;
If it breaks all the pictures on the wall

He seems much like the Indian medicine man,
Who in his mind is sure
That iirest noise is but the thing that can
