| OLD Master Brown brought his ferule down, | |
And his face looked angry and red. | |
Go, seat you there, now, Anthony Blair, | |
Along with the girls, he said. | |
Then Anthony Blair, with a mortified air, | 5 |
With his head down on his breast, | |
Took his penitent seat by the maiden sweet | |
That he loved, of all, the best. | |
And Anthony Blair seemed whimpering there, | |
But the rogue only made believe; | 10 |
For he peeped at the girls with the beautiful curls, | |
And ogled them over his sleeve. | | | |
