````Prim little Miss Sonnet
````Once ordered a bonnet;
```The biggest and grandest that ever was seen.
````And little Miss Sonnet
````She said, "I will don it,
```For I am quite sure it is fit for the Queen."
````Then little Miss Sonnet
```She put on lier bonnet,
```And tied a true lover's knot under her chin;
````And this wonderful bonnet
````Had red roses on it,
```With all of them fastened in place with a pin.
````So little Miss Sonnet
````Went out with her bonnet,
```And strutted about for a while in the park;
````When the wind took the bonnet
````With little Miss Sonnet,
```And blew them both up in the sky, like a spark.=
--ALBERT H. HARDY.
