SIXTH FLAT A Burglar on the next floor upThe sideboard was exploring. (The family, with the brindled pup,Were still asleep and snoring.) Just then, up through the silverwareThe rocket thundered, flaring! The Burglar got a dreadful scare;Then out the door went tearing. … ♦ SEVENTH FLAT Miss Mamie Briggs with no mean skillWas playing Caseys Fling To please her cousin, Amos Gill,Who liked that sort of thing, When suddenly the rocket, hot, The old piano jumbled!It stopped that rag-time like a shot, Then through the ceiling rumbled.
