St. Nicholas [serial] (1873)

Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · leaf 446

An illustration from St. Nicholas [serial], 1873, leaf 446 — And its quite too far away.T is best to roam the fleecy foam, Combing my hair all day. Alas ! for the dear little, queer little man, As sad as sad could be —He hid his wail in a leaf of kail, I 11 travel abroad, quoth he. So he packed a bag with a suit of flag,His stick was a seaweed brown, And he… … But sad to say, he turned away,And a merry, laughing wave Washed out the sign and bit of pine,And none was there to save! Gone is the dear little, queer little man, So pray tell all you seeAbout the sweet little, neat little house, To let at the bottom of the sea.
