The children are playing “Jack and Jill.”
Alice says, “I must have a pail, Grace.”
Grace says, “Frank will get a pail.
Thank you. Here is the pail, Alice.
Mother says she will sing with us.”
“Thank you, Mother. Thank you.”
Jack, come tumbling down.
Now, Jill, you must come tumbling down.
Frank says, “Sing some other song.
Let us sing about the cunning mouse.
Mink is black all over. Baby loves her.
Do you love Mink very much, Baby?
Well, we will sing a song, Baby.
We will sing about your kitty.”
