Poem by Clarence James Dennis

Lullaby

You are much too big to dandle,
And I will not leave the candle.
Go to sleep.
You are growing naughty, rather,
And I'll have to speak to father.
Go to sleep!
If you're good I shall not tell, then.
Oh, a story? Very well, then.
Once upon a time, a king, named Crawley Creep,
Had a very lovely daughter...
You don't want a drink of water!
Go to sleep! There! There! Go to sleep.
