Then Marjorie stood on a leathern chair,
And opened the window to the air.
The bats flap, the owls hoot—
Marjorie lifted the giant’s boot!
The ravens shriek, the owls hoot—
Marjorie got into the giant’s boot!
And Marjorie said, “I can reach the moon
Before you waken, you big buffoon!”
Once, twice, three times, and away,—
“Which is the road to Banbury, pray?”
The Boot made answer, “Hah, hah! hoh, hoh!
The road to Banbury town I know.”
