Where’er his kind and lovin’ mistress went,
As if the little creature wast content
If it couldst only be where she wast. Oh,
I realize what madest it hanker so
To be in school that day: it surely meant
It loved her! Yet, that mean old teacher bent
On bossin’ things—he didst not seem to know.
Sometimes I get to wishin’ I might be
A little lamb like Mary’s, fond and true,
With Susan Sanderson as Mary, see?
