You drew,—and got one very curly,

And split like endive in some hurly-burly;

The next, unslit, and square at end, a spade;

The third, incipient pop-gun, not yet made;

The fourth a broom; the fifth of no avail,

Turn’d upwards, like a rabbit’s tail;

And last, not least, by way of a relief,

A stump that Master Richard, James, or John,

Had tried his candle-cookery upon,

Making “roast-beef!”
