And the fairy

Journeyed far, far

To the North Star.

THE BLACKSMITH’S SERENADE

A pantomime and farce, to be acted by My Lady on one side of a shutter, while the singer chants on the other, to an iron guitar.

John Littlehouse the redhead was a large ruddy man

Quite proud to be a blacksmith, and he loved Polly Ann, Polly Ann.

Straightway to her window with his iron guitar he came

Breathing like a blacksmith—his wonderful heart’s flame.

Though not very bashful and not very bold
