An illustration from St. Nicholas [serial], 1873, leaf 295
Some members of our family Have arms, and some have not;Some have straight legs and can not move. While others move a lot.We re big and little, hard and soft, But always have a lapFor you to crawl up on and rest, And sometimes take a nap. When you look in my head, yourself you 11 seeSad or happy,… … ® ® liiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiim liinMiimii iL 5^ Just a top and little legs, Is all there is of me,But when it comes to holding things, Im useful as can be.The people gather round me. Their merry games to play.To read their books and eat their food- In fact, both night and day.
