Tricksy is not the dog to hurt you!”
One day a dog that played with him
Jumped in the river for a swim.
Poor Tricksy went after, with a bound,—
Ah, foolish dog! for he was drowned.
Poor tricky Tricksy is now no more;
He’s dead!—’tis sad, but true;
Too many were the little tricks
This dog had tried to do.
