Mrs Gray now lives in a pretty flat in South Kensington with her faithful old Dolly, surrounded by many of her former luxuries, but she is happiest in the possession of such a brave and noble son. Bernard’s future is assured, for he showed all the qualities that command success in his last experiment.
Chapter Ten.
Toby the Clown, by Anon.
Toby’s the most famous clown,
In the country or the town;
Never was a laugh so ringing,
When the children hear him singing!
See, he stands upon two legs,
With his hat for coppers begs;
Do you think that you, if you
Were a dog, as much could do?
Little maid and little man,
Throw him all the pence you can!
When perhaps he’ll show you how
He says “Thank you,” Bow! wow! wow!
