THE KANGAROOS.
A FABLE.
A PAIR of married kangaroos
(The case is oft a human one too)
Were greatly puzzled once to choose
A trade to put their eldest son to:
A little brisk and busy chap,
As all the little K.’s just then are—
About some two months off the lap,—
They’re not so long in arms as men are.
A twist in each parental muzzle
