Above a thousand chimney pots,
And all about the sky.

I cannot read a bit!"

It looked so good to eat!
Papa, he quickly ate it up,
And said, "This is a treat!"

All in the dark away,
Papa said, "What an owl you are!
Why don't you fly by day?"

Went out to take a walk;

Upon a garden tree;

And ate it with his tea.
