Where Boys Go



The pastor came across the lot,
     Beside the brooklet fair;
He was upon his way to church,
     A boy was fishing there.
The pastor stopped and rubbed his eyes,
     Could scarce believe his sight;
“My boy,” said he, “do you not know
     Where little boys alight
Who fish on Sunday?” “Yes, indeed,
     They light right here,” said he;
“You orter fetched along your pole,
     And fished awhile with me.”
