She’s sitting there, behind the chair,

With blocks, and dolls, and kitty,

A playing “go to gran’ma’s house,”

Alone, ’n that’s a pity.

I think I’ll go and help her some,

I’m sure it would amuse me;

So I won’t bother any more

To talk—if you’ll excuse me.

But first I’ll stand before the glass,

From top to toe it reaches;
