Did'st ever read those truthful stories,

Good Dr. HEINRICH HOFFMANN's glories,

Which round the world have travelled gaily,

By Nursery pets consulted daily?

If not, just get "Shock-headed PETER";

Read of AUGUSTUS, the soup-eater,

And stuck-up "JOHNNY Head-in-Air,"

Who came down "bump" all unaware.

And "Fidgety PHILIP." You'll confess them

Pointed,—and don't try to suppress them,
