THE TRAVELLER
Thorp was a. smiling little girl, They put her in a train And said: Until yon pet to Bath Now don't got out again. The guard lie was a great grand man In Mho with buttons gold. Ho said: I'd bettor guard this girl, She isn't very old. Now. she had got a little purse, With ticket tucked inside (For such a tiny ticket, oh! It seemed a great big ride). She had two pennies all her own, And, as was only right. She tipped the guard with one of them When Hath town came in sight. And then (she wasn't quite, quite sure. If people did do this). She lifted tip her little face And gave the guard a kiss.
