Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · leaf 51
Other men tinker your furniture flimsy, Your broken umbrella, or leaky saucepan;But never, I warrant, a tinker so whimsy,So nimble and deft as this gay little man: Tempers to mend ! Tempers to mend 1Ho ! Bring me your tempers to mend !Prickly ones —thorny ones—sputtery, squeaky-Latches off—hinges… … 14 THE TEMPER TINKER IS
