SHEEP
De black sheep says, "Oh, what's de use
To shun de mire an' de
muddy sluice?
For whether I walks for praise or blame,
Dey'll call
me 'black sheep,' jes de same!"
An' he ain't by 'isself in dat, in dat--
An' he ain't by 'isself in dat.
[Illustration]
THE PRIZE-WINNER
Dat Berkshire horg in de blue ribbon pen
Come home wid de
heavy-weight prize again;
He looks mighty pompious in 'is stall,

But he's on'y a fat horg, after all.
An' he ain't by 'isself in dat, in dat--
An' he ain't by 'isself in dat.
[Illustration]
THE DOG
I can't talk dog an' he can't talk man,
Yit Rover an' me, we onderstan';

I wag my tongue an' he wags 'is tail,
An' Love explains whar
grammars fail.
An' we ain't by ourselves in dat, in dat--
No, we ain't by ourselves in
dat.

FOOTNOTES:
[1] The guinea-fowl strays away from home and makes her nest in the
fields. The newly hatched guinea-chicks are beautiful, dainty things,
with coral-colored feet which look very fine. The guinea's cry, loud and

harsh, sounds like "Potterack!" or "Poor trash!"
[2] The white-faced bee does not sting.
