CHRISTMAS EVE
Peggy and Peter woke up in the'night, And opened their stockings, so bumpy and tight. A Santa Claus goblin peeped over the bed, And “ Oh, this is dreadfully shocking,” he said; “ Undoing your presents before it is day, We’ll tell Father Christmas, and what will he say? There’s poor Mr Golliwog all of a shake, Turning head over heels when he’s hardly awake! Now pack up the bunny, the drum, and the ball, And hang up that stocking quite dose to the wall; And drop off to sleep, or you musn’t complain ; If we take all the toys up the chimney again.”
