Ned Hits The Wall!
NED’S HORSE.
And he learned the fact that as a rule,
No mending is done without a tool,
And he carried his horse to a carpenter,
Who said, “I’ll mend it, my little sir.”
And really he mended the head so well
That the broken place you could hardly tell,
And proud as a lord was gallant Ned
Who mounted his hobby-horse and said,
“You never could mend a live horse’s-head,
So I’ll keep my wooden one instead.”

THE SWINEHERD.
“Ask him,” said the princess, “if he will be satisfied with ten kisses from one of my ladies.”

The ladies placed themselves in front of her and spread out their dresses, and she gave the swineherd ten kisses and received the pot.

“THE PRACTICAL JOKE.”
Little Joey Bun,
He’s the chap for fun,
Sometimes he is really quite provoking.
He’ll always make you laugh,
He’s much too smart by half;
There never seems an end to all his joking.
Father Bun is old –
Joey Bun is bold,
Not a spark of fear in him remaining:
What’s his latest spree?
Well, just look and see.
I don’t think the picture needs explaining.

Goodbye June!
June’s Visit
My Beetles in trappings of green brushed with gold
Bring with joy all the treasures my carriage can hold.
And thousands of flowers for the children I strew,
With Plenty for brides and sweet graduates too.
Attended with strains from Sir Cricket’s wee band
I scattered my posies with prodigal hand;
I regret that my sojourn on earth must end soon,
But each year you may look for a visit from June.

I’ll Grind His Bones To Make My Bread!
“Fe, fi, fo, fum, I smell the blood of an Englishman;
Be he alive, or be he dead, I’ll grind his bones to make my bread.”
[h]e called out, for he could smell Jack, though he could not see him.
“Well,” said Jack, taking off his coat, “you may catch me if you like.” Then round the courtyard he ran with the giant after him. Across the drawbridge he darted, and after him lumbered the giant, but his weight was so great that crash went the bridge, and he fell in the moat and was drowned.

Puffy’s Doctor & The Dog Thief!
But once the little thing fell off a chair,
And put his shoulder out with that sad tumble;
The doctor set and bound it up with care,
While Puffy looked so very wan and humble.
One day he ran out in the street to play
With little friends (his Missis, who will warn her!)
He strays too far, – at last is borne away
By a bad man who lived just round the corner.
To his poor Missis none can comfort say,
Her grief by sighs and tears so plainly marking:
When he’d been gone a twelvemonth and a day,
Outside the door was heard familiar barking.
