“And even took him to the Zoo-
But there it was the dreadful Fate
Befell him, which I now relate.
You know- at least you ought to know,
For I have often told you so-
That Children are never allowed
To leave their Nurses in a Crowd”
“Everybody did everything to stop me. I was allowed no chance whatsoever. No chance to talk to Mum about the bike I dream of day and night! And I knew exactly the bike I wanted.”
