The river-shore;
(Children join in.)
And all the desert vast
Shakes with their roar.
Turn, sing, right arms lifted like imperious paws.
March around the room rapidly, tossing heads, pursuing teacher, or mother, who “falls in” at the right point, keeping in advance.
March around the room again. “Take the prey” by overtaking and surrounding the teacher, or mother.
(Children sing.)
The lions, they are kings!
