And runs around like fool. I've heard

And whenever he hears noise like the cIink

To n bank. and hide his head, and think
That the rest or himself Is hid.
Secure with his head in the sand nc waita
Like bump on log. tits said

With a gunnysacs on his head;
And The rest OF his life he spends In rcmorse.

And the strategy he essays
