- I caught a bird which made a ball
- And they thought better of it.
- But it is all of which they taught
- That they were in a hurry yet
- In a kind of a way they meant it best
- That they should change in and on account
- But they must not stare when they manage
- Whatever they are occasionally liable to do
- It is often easy to pursue them once in a while
- And in a way there is no repose
- They like it as well as they ever did
- But it is very often just by the time
- That they are able to separate
- In which case in effect they could
- Not only be very often present perfectly
- In each way whichever they chose.
