PETER VISITS AN EPISCOPAL CHURCH

When Peter who was a country jake

A visit to a church did make

He sat with pleased look on his face

As if indeed in Heaven's place.

And after service when his Ma

Praised him aloud to his kind Pa

He said, "Of course I sat quite still

And watched the preacher's wives so ill

All dressed in nighties, though their hair

Was primped and curled as for a fair."
