The Panjandrum Picture Book :: THE GREAT PANJANDRUM HIMSELF

THE GREAT PANJANDRUM HIMSELF

So she went into the garden to cut a cabbage-leaf

to make

an apple-pie;

and at the same time a great she-bear, coming down the street, pops its head into the shop.

What! no soap?

So he died,

and she very imprudently married the Barber:

and there were present

the Picninnies, and the Joblillies,

and the Garyulies,

and the great Panjandrum himself, with
the little round button at top;

and they all fell to playing the game of
catch-as-catch-can,

till the gunpowder ran out at the heels
of their boots.
