The _Children_ drone [Sidenote: ♓︎]
In sing-song tone,
The _Master’s_ shoes creak on the _Floor_.
They’re baking _Pies_
At _Home_, and _Flies_ [Sidenote: _Good weather for farming._]
Buzz in and out the open _Door_.
The _Beds_ are made;
The _Pans_ are laid
Out in the pleasant _Sun_ to dry.
Good _Gretchen_ takes
Some _Dough_, and makes,
For little _John_, a _Saucer Pie_. [Sidenote: KP]
