Did you ever know that rnices Diked to feed on strawberry ices, And that jeopards cannot do without a “spot,” And in man from Tipperary, Who respects his “little Mary,” Has a preference for mustard when .its hot ? Did you know that lemon syrup Makes an .alligator chirrup, and a bicycle go down upon its knees; Yet a, man of Dutch extraction, Oannot tell you to a fraction The precise amount of holes .in clieddar cheese? Did you ever know that onions Were the best things, out for bunions. And that cornflour is the very tiling for “corns,” And that cauliflower and gravy M.a.ke the straightest hair "row wavy. If they’re eaten with a springling of prawns ? Did you know that Cinderella Had a face like an umbrella. Which was useful for sunshade, were if hot, And that on,c© there lived a jelly Whom its mother christened Nelly? Well, I’ll tell von very frankly T did not!
