WHEN WE GET THERE.
ON the thirty-second day of the thirteenth month or the eighth day of the week, On the twenty-fifth hour of the sixty-first minute we 11 find all things that we seek. They aie there in the limbo of Lollipop land, a cloud island resting in air, On the Nowhere side of the Mountain of Mist m the V alley of Overthere. On the Nowhere side of the Mountain of Mist in the Valley of Overthere, On a solid vapour foundation of cloud are palaces grand and And there is where our dreams will come true and the seeds of our hope will grow, < In the thitherward side of the Hills of Hope, in the hamlet of Hocus Po. On the thitherward side of the Hills of Hope, in the hamlet of Hocus Po, We shall see all the things that we want to see, and know all we care to know, For there the old men will never lament, the babies will never squeak, In the Cross Road Corners of Chaosville, in the County of Hideangoseek. In the Cross Road Corners of Chaosville, in the County of Hideangoseek, On the thirty-second day of the thirteenth month or the eighth day of the week, We shall do all the things that we please to do, and accomplish all that we try On the sunset shore of Sometimeorother, by the beautiful Bay of Bimeby.
