THE MOON DANCE

Two shadow-colts one summer night did try
To dance a jig because the moon was high:
But the moon obscured its face,
For she thought 't was a disgrace.
While the little stars were laughing in the sky.

PREHISTORIC ANIMALS

Many creatures such as these,
Ere the dawn of history,
On the land, and in the seas
Manufactured mystery.

Mystery for mighty men
Who, like Doctor Dry-bone
Bring them into form again
From a scale or thigh-bone.
