A Wonderful Trio.
Never was seen such a wonderful three As stood on the shores of the Sandalwood sea, While sounds that would make a deaf man stare Rose and fell on the crinklesome air. : Twas the Gryveling Gryg of the fanlike ear And the spidery legs so nink and grear; 'Twas the Winnyii»g Wix, with his smile BO bland, And the Spotted Guffoon from the Tuxntum land.
They sat on the shore of the Sandalwwd sea, The quankiest trio that e'or could ho; And they yowled and yowled witfc a keen delight From eight in tho morning untit eight at night. Why did they do it? Ah, who's to say? Oddities act in their own quaint-way, A.nd if you inquire if they still are there, Well, I neither know, and 1 neither care!
