Down-stairs in the kitchen the fire doth glow,And cook is a-kneading the soft white dough ;And this is the song she is singing to-day,As merry and busy she s working away : T is the finest dough whether near or afar,And it is for Alices supper—ha ! ha ! … To the nursery now comes mother, at last,—And what in her hand is she brinmne so fast?T is a plateful of something, all yellow and white,And she sings as she comes, with her smile so bright : T is the best bread and butter I ever did see,And it is for Alices supper—he ! he ! 698 JACK-IX-THE-PULPIT.…
