Go, get thee to bed and repose—

To sit up so late is a scandal;

But ere you have ta’en off your clothes,

Be sure that you put out that candle.

Ri fol de rol tol de rol lol.

My stars, in the air here’s a knife!—

I’m sure it can not be a hum;

I’ll catch at the handle, add’s life!

And then I shall not cut my thumb.

I’ve got him!—no, at him again!
