 THE HEN

 

The hen is such a funny fowl

For all she has to do

Is walk around all day, and eat,

And cock her eye at you;

 

And always, when she’s being fed

She quickly singles out

The choicest bit, and seizing it

She rushes all about

 

And eats it far from other hens

With quite a show of greed;

Then cocks her eye and walks about—

Oh, what a life to lead!
