An illustration from St. Nicholas, 1873, leaf 895
SEVEN IDLE LITTLE MEN. BV E. ViNTOX BLAK.1. Seven idle little men were sitting on a tree.Discussing all that s happened and all that s sure to be.Seven giant bumble-bees, from off a bush of posies,Stung the seven little men upon their seven noses. … ^V»i^5^ Seven shrieks arose at once and seven wives did run: All the seven noses were bandaged, one by one;Seven messengers were sent, in seven separate flurries,To bring back seven doctors in seven awful hurries.
