And the next day it rained.
The waves rolled round him DER the wreck,
And the next day it rained.
Ten thousand people nod and beck,
The boy sneered at the crowd and wreck,
And calmly shouted, ''rubber-neck!'
And the next day it rained.
The sun shone oncc-some years ago
And the next day it rained.
At night the earth was white with snow,
And tho next day it rained.
The sky was wet and the sun was meek,
AS it rained along from week to week,
AT night the heavens sprung leak
And the next day it raincd.
a man came out from tho east ctfete,
And the next day it, rained.
Waded down a watery street,
And the next day it raincd.
He sloshed around through snow and sleet,
While it rained "P. P" I'D. c. repeat"
When he went back home he had web feet,
And the next day it rained.
