So I couldn’t sit still with ’citement
All the whole way in the fly!
We got there at last: there was numbers
Of boys and girls at their teas,
And oh!—in the corner—the Bissop!—
With two little girls on his knees.
I knew they was much more pretty
Than me; but I thought perhaps
Their turn would be over bye and bye
And he’ld take me up on his laps!
