ou so: Vou say but the word to that gingerbread dog, And he barks with such terrible zestThat the chocolate cat is at once all agog. As her swelling proportions attest.And the chocolate cat goes cavorting around From this leafy limb unto that,And the sugar-plums tumble, of course, to theground—… … AS MUCH AS YOURAPRON CAN HOLD ! THE SUGAR-PLUM TREE So come, little child, cuddle closer to nieIn your dainty white nightcap and gown, And Ill rock you away to that Sugar-Plum TreeIn the garden of Shut-Eye Town.
