Excerpt from Little John Bull, and Other Poems
Little John Bull
Young John Bull went to visit his neighbor
And see all the wonderful sights;
He thought Paris a real fairy city
Just out of "Arabian Nights."
But the language to him was a puzzle -
Why should bread be spelt like a pain,
And how could e, a, u (o) mean water,
What kept them from making French plain?
Johnny said that his ears felt so homesick,
Hearing only strange words all day,
So, one morn when he wakened up early,
A cock crowing not far away
Quite enraptured surprised little Johnny,
And made him cry out in his glee,
"Wake up, Daddy, that rooster speaks English!
I want you to catch him for me."
