"Nonsense Books"



D
[Illustration]
D was Papa's white Duck,
Who had a curly tail;
One day it ate a great fat frog,
Besides a leetle snail.

E
[Illustration]
E was a little Egg,
Upon the breakfast table;
Papa came in and ate it up
As fast as he was able.

F
[Illustration]
F was a little Fish.
Cook in the river took it
Papa said, "Cook! Cook! bring a dish!
And, Cook! be quick and cook it!"

G
[Illustration]
G was Papa's new Gun;
He put it in a box;
And then he went and bought a bun,
And walked about the Docks.

H
[Illustration]
H was Papa's new Hat;
He wore it on his head;
Outside it was completely black,
But inside it was red.

I
[Illustration]
I was an Inkstand new,
Papa he likes to use it;
He keeps it in his pocket now,
For fear that he should lose it.

J
[Illustration]
J was some Apple Jam,
Of which Papa ate part;
But all the rest he took away
And stuffed into a tart.
