Table of Contents

The most precious treasures in all this good earth,

The givers of JOY of only true worth

Are good books and babies, the two little B's

That are gifts of the FAIRIES for mortals to please.

The most dreaded tortures in all this wide earth

That to all greatest SORROWS are prone to give birth

Are bad tears and temper, the two ugly T's

Invented by GOBLINS for mortals to tease.
