Walking With Papa

“Won’t you walk a little farther?”

Said a Goop to his Papa;

“It is really quite delightful,

And we haven’t travelled far;

Wont you walk a little farther,

There’s a house I’d like to see!

Won’t you walk a little farther,

Till we reach that cherry-tree?”

“Won’t you carry me? I’m tired!”

Whined a Goop to his Papa;

“And my feet are sore and weary,

And we’ve gone so very far!

Won’t you carry me? I’m tired!

And I can’t walk back alone!

Won’t you carry me? I’m tired!”

And the Goop began to groan.
