"You mean the clock that's ticking there?

I see no wonder, I declare!

Though maybe, if the truth were told,

'Tis rather ugly, somewhat old;

Yet time it keeps to half a minute;

But, if you please, what wonder in it?"

"Tom, don't you recollect," said Will,

"The clock at Jersey, near the mill,

The very image of this present,

With which I won the wager pleasant?"
