[Illustration] This is little Jacky Dandy He loves cake and sugar-candy, He bought some at the grocer's shop, And pleased away went hop, hop, hop. He hopp'd to the fair, And saw a show there. [Illustration] The first was the Lion, That never would yield; Behold how he ranger, The King of the field. He next saw the Wolf, a cruel and savage beast. [Illustration] This is the Wolf, That prouls thro' the wood, Who preys upon lambs, And drinks of their blood. He was next shewn a Monkey, a funny fellow, but mischievous. [Illustration] The monkey mischievous Like a naughty boy looks, Who plagues all his friends, And don't mind his books. The next was a Bear, that had been taught to dance. [Illustration] This is the Bear, In Greenland was bred, And brought over here, Thro' the streets to be led. The next was the Tiger. [Illustration] The savage Tiger will, they say, Sieze any man that's in his way, And o'er his back the victim throw, As you your satchel may do now. He now saw a little Robin Red-breast hopping about. [Illustration] He cocks his tail, While hopping along, And pays for his crumbs With an innocent song. The next was little Jenny Wren the smallest bird in England. [Illustration] The little Robin And the Wren, Are Jacky Dandy's Cock and Hren. The next was a Kite a cruel enemy to all small birds. [Illustration] This is the Kite, When searching for food Kills Bob and his wife, And all the young brood. The next was a Goose, some say a silly bird but good roasted. [Illustration] This is the Goose, That wadles and swims, See, little boy, How foolish she seems. The next was a beautiful Game Cock with fine comb and gills. [Illustration] This is the Cock Who crows, if you're wise, To tell you from bed 'Tis time for to rise. The next was a Hen and Chickens--See, there is one on her Back. [Illustration] This is the Hen Who cares for her young, And cackles to please them Instead of a song. The next was a very fine Newfoundland Dog. [Illustration] This is the Dog, Who whilst we're asleep, Is a guard to the house, And from thieves does it keep. The next was a nice Cat who sat purring a song. [Illustration] This is poor Puss, The beautiful Cat, That keeps the house clear, Of both Mouse and Rat. CONCLUSION.
