“What
would you do?” Said Nell to Belle,
As she shuddered from foot to head,
“If
you woke at night with an awful fright
And heard a man under your bed?”
Nell
and Belle were bachelor maids,
Their ages were thirty-three;
And
they were plain and quite ungain,
And timid as they could be.
“What
would I do?” Said Belle to Nell,
“If I heard a man under my bed?
I
would die of fright and then strike a light
And see what he looked like,” she said.
