THIRTEENTH FLAT Home from the shop came Mauds new hat- A hat of monstrous size!It almost filled the tiny flat Before her ravished eyes. When, sch-u-u! up through the box so proudThe rocket flared and spluttered. I said that hat was all too loud!Her peevish husband muttered. … FOURTEENTH FLAT Toms pap had helped him start his train, And all would have been fineHad not the rocket, raising Cain, Blocked traffic on the line. It blew the engine into scrap, As in a fit of passion. Who would have thought that toy, said pap, Would blow up in such fashion!
