Thus departed Hiawatha.

From Rhyme? and Reason? by Lewis Carroll, 1883.

These disjointed extracts give but a poor idea of this most amusing poem, the comical effects of which are much heightened by Mr. A. B. Frost's humorous illustrations.


THE LAWN-TENNIS PARTY AT PEPPERHANGER.

(A fragment in the metre of Longfellow's "Hiawatha.")

I was sitting in my wigwam,

Looking from my lofty wigwam,

On the fir-clad hill of Dryburgh,

O'er the vale of Pepperhanger.
