“What makes you want a skin this bean?”
I asked with gushing fear,
Then there was a wretched scene,
For I saw him shed a tear.

He said with face forlorn
“But I cannot get a decent pose”.
And so he ‘gan to mourn.

Then stand upon the heath
Bond your knew, give a sneeze
And then do skin your teeth.”
X.

And then he gave me a penny.
I said “you villainous knave
Now don't forget to shave!”
