LESLIE BROOKE First Edition, 1907 TO MY NEPHEW SOMERSET HAPPY IN A NAME THAT ASSURES HIS WELCOME TO JOHNNY CROW'S--OR ANY OTHER--PARTY Johnny Crow Plied Rake and Hoe And improved his little Garden. And the Eagle Looked quite regal In Johnny Crow's Garden And the Cockatoo Said "_Comment vous portez vous?_" And the Gander Didn't understand her; But the Flamingo Talked the same lingo In Johnny Crow's Garden. And the Bear Sang a sentimental Air, But the Giraffe Was inclined to laugh; Even the Duckling Couldn't help chuckling In Johnny Crow's Garden. Then the Snake Got entangled with the rake In Johnny Crow's Garden. And the Cock Had a very nasty knock; So the Hen Said: "We'll never come again To Johnny Crow's Garden!" And the Sheep Went to sleep, And the Armadillo Used him for a pillow; And the Porcupine Said: "Wake me if for talk you pine!" In Johnny Crow's Garden. And the Kangaroo Tried to paint the Roses blue Till the Camel Swallowed the Enamel. And the Reindeer Said: "I'm sorry for your pain, dear!" In Johnny Crow's Garden. So the Chimpanzee Put the Kettle on for Tea; And the Seal Made a very big Meal; While the Sole Shared a Muffin with the Mole In Johnny Crow's Garden. Then they picked the Flowers, and Wandered in the Maze, And before they went their several ways They all joined together In a Hearty Vote of Praise Of Johnny Crow and his Garden.
