      CONTENTS.

      A TRUE STORY.

      Little Ann and her mother were walking one day

      Through London's wide city so fair,

      And business obliged them to go by the way

      That led them through Cavendish Square.

      And as they pass'd by the great house of a Lord,

      A beautiful chariot there came,

      To take some most elegant ladies abroad,

      Who straightway got into the same.

      The ladies in feathers and jewels were seen,

      All cover'd with varnish and gold,
