Not sparkle-proof,

Some ninny-hammer struck upon a nail,—

Whether some glow-worm of the Guy Faux stamp,

Crept in the building, with Unsafety Lamp—

One day this mill that had by water ground,

Became a sort of windmill and blew round.

With bounce that went in sound as far as Dover, it

Sent half the workmen sprawling to the sky;

Besides some visitors who gained thereby,

What they had asked—permission “to go over it!”
