Then came fourteen little ponies, stamping their feet.
Then came the big band-wagon playing “Yankee Doodle” and the caliope playing “Annie Rooney.”
Then came cages with more animals in them.
Then came the clowns and another band that played “Marching through Georgia.” The parade was very splendid indeed.
The procession went up one street and down another, and there were crowds and crowds of people.
Every one said, “There must be a fierce lion in that covered wagon.”
They meant the wagon in which the Roly-Polys rode.
What do you suppose those comical little Roly-Polys did?
They all roared like very fierce lions, and they made a terrible noise.
