Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · leaf 360
Since then, at ease, their majesties Eat pastries every day.The knave afHrms his stomach squirms, And looks the other way.Alas, alas, to such a pass Doth gluttony invite!Tis very sad to be so bad. And lose ones appetite. … Next day the queen, with lofty mien. Prepared some lovely pies.The feeble knave side-glances gave At them with longing eyes.The cruel king, with mocking fling, Said: Do, now, have some pie! The qualmish knave, no longer brave. Could only groan, Not I.
