Said Spot to Jack: ''Indeed what fun
'Twould be if we this thing could rum
And, at the word, both in trce
Climbed in despite their friends advice.
The rig stood still till little Spot
Touched something-he did not know
what
Then, with sputter wheeze and cough
It shook all through and started off.
1t slided swiftly up the street;
Jack jumped and landed on his feet
But little Spotty, weak from fear,
Could not jump out and could not steer.
Out to the country, fresh and green,
Like Ii ghtning flew the wild machine;
Right throue eh fence it tore its way.
