THE PEG-TOP.

Spin away, spin away, round and round--

The hum of the top has a merry sound;

The peg-top's journey is just beginning,

Ever so long it will go on spinning.

Up in my hand, or down on the ground,

Still the peg-top goes round and round.

Baby looks on with eyes so bright--

Isn't top spinning a wonderful sight?
