Tick-took Tick-tock


Tick-tock, tick-tock,

Sings the pretty cuckoo clock;

Tick-tack, tick-tack,

Time flies on, but ne'er comes back.



Tick-tock, tick-tock,

Sings the dainty crystal clock;

Tick-tack, Tick-tack,

Work and wait, and never lack.



Tick-tock, Tick-tock,

Sings the old grandfather's clock,

Tick-tack, tick-tack,

Take and keep, the better track.
















THE COW-TREE.





South America's soil

Yields the towering Cow-tree,

With sweet milk in its cells

For you or for me;

Its sap is the Milk,--

Cut the tree and it flows;

Like leather its leaves,

And its branches like bows.
