I brought, I brought a news to the young King Daniel; Miss Lumpy kill Miss Wenchy loss, on becount of young King Daniel. |
At last the Parrot got to the table where the young King Daniel was.
An' Miss Lumpy was into a room crying. Many pocket-handkerchief she got wet with tears. An' the Parrot sing the same song:—"I brought, I brought a news to the young King Daniel; Miss Lumpy kill Miss Wenchy loss on becount of young King Daniel."
Then Miss Lumpy call out:—"Oh drive away that nasty bird, for Miss Wenchy head hurting her."
But King Daniel wouldn' have it so, but said:—"I heard my name call. I would like to know what is it."
An' the Parrot fly near upon the King's shoulder an' tell him what become of Miss Wenchy. An' they go an' look in the room an' find her not.
An' pretty Polly take them to the pond an' show them where Miss Wenchy is, an' she was drown.
Then the King call Miss Lumpy an' head him up into a barrel an' fasten it up with tenpenny nails, an' carry him up to a high hill an' let him go down the gully, an' he drop in the gully pom-galong.
An' the Parrot laugh Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
