She would deliberately go
And Slam the door like Billy-Ho!
To make
ââher
âââââââUncle Jacob start.
She was not really bad at heart,
But only rather rude and wild:
She was an aggravating child. . . .
It happened that a Marble Bust
Of Abraham was standing just
Above the Door this little Lamb
Had carefully prepared to Slam,
And Down it came! It knocked her flat!
It laid her out! She looked like that.
*
Her funeral Sermon (which was long
And followed by a Sacred Song)
Mentioned her Virtues, it is true,
But dwelt upon her Vices too,
And showed the Dreadful End of One
Who goes and slams the door for Fun.
