THE CURIOUS CASEOF AH-TOP {A Chinese Legend) The slant-eyed maidens, when they spiedThe cue of Ah-Top, gaily cried, It is some mandarin !The street-boys followed in a crowd;No wonder that Ah-Top was proud And wore a conscious grin ! But one day Ah-Tops heart grew sad.My fate, he said, is quite too… … At length he hit upon a plan,Exclaiming, Im a clever man! I know what I will do:Ill simply wheel myself around,And then the pigtail will he found Where I can see it, too.
