Cinderella!
“Now fetch the mouse-trap from the shelf – there are six mice inside;”
She changed them to six prancing steeds, all harnessed side by side.
“Now fetch the rat-trap,” and there was therein a large black rat,
So he was made a coachman, with silk stockings and cocked hat.
Six lizards happening to be there, all ready to the hand,
Were changed to powdered footmen, staff and bouquet all so grand.
“Now, Cinderella, here’s your coach to take you to the ball.”
“Not as I am,” she cried; “like this I cannot go at all.”

THUMBLING AS JOURNEYMAN
A certain tailor had a son, who happened to be small, and no bigger than a Thumb, and on this account he was always called Thumbling. He had, however, some courage in him, and said to his father, “Father, I must and will go out into the world.” “That’s right, my son,” said the old man, and took a long darning-needle and made a knob of sealing-wax on it at the candle, “and there is a sword for thee to take with thee on the way.”

Pig In A Pear Tree!
Well, the little pig bustled up the next morning at four o’clock, and went off for the pears, hoping to get back before the wolf came. But he had further to go, and had to climb the tree, so that just as he was getting down from it he saw the wolf coming, which, as you may suppose, frightened him very much. When the wolf came up he said, “What! are you here before me? are they nice pears?” “Yes, very,” said the little pig. “I will throw you down one;” and he threw it so far that while the wolf was going to pick it up, the little pig jumped down and ran home.

On flitting fireflies wafted high
They light their candles in the sky.

Cinderella’s Sad Story!
There was an honest gentleman, who had a daughter dear;
His wife was dead, he took instead a new one in a year;
She had two daughters – Caroline and Bella were their names;
They called the other daughter Cinderella, to their shames,
Because she had to clean the hearths and black-lead all the grates;
She also had to scrub the floors, and wash the dinner plates.
But though the others went abroad, did nothing, smiled and drest,
Yet Cinderella all the time was prettiest and best.
The King who ruled in that country, he had an only son,
Who gave a ball to all the town, when he was twenty-one;
And Caroline and Bella were invited, and they said,
“Cinderella shall leave scrubbing, and act as ladies maid.”

A Sloven!
A SAD CASE.
Matilda Belinda Lucinda MacGovern
Was very untidy – you might say, a sloven!
She always objected to dusting and cleaning;
Towards brushes and brooms she had no sort of leaning.
In fact it was said that the sight of a duster,
Upstairs or downstairs, would simply disgust her;
And a broom to the room of this sad Miss. MacGovern
Was as strange as a spider’s web in a hot oven.
Matilda Belinda Lucinda MacGovern,
Oh! what could have taught her to be such a sloven?
The birds or the bees? – show us anything neater!
The daisies? – Ah! What could be nicer and sweeter?
