QUADRILLE, 151

* Will you walk a little faster?” said a whiting to a snail,
“There's a porpoise close behind us, and he’s treading on
my tad,
See how eagerly the lobsters and the turtles all advance!
They are waiting on the shingle—will you come and join
the dance?
Will you, won’t you, will you, won't you, will you join
the dance ?
Wiil you, won't you, will you, won't you, won't you join
the dance?

“ You can really have no notion how delightful it will be
When they take us up and throw us, with the lobsters, out
to sea !” éz 3 |
But the snail replied, “ Too far, tor far!” and gave a look

askance—
Saul he thanked the whiting kindly, but he would not join
the dance.
Would not, could not, would not, could not, would not
jom the dance:

Would not, could not, would not, could not, rould not
jotn the dance.
