O-DAY when I played anagrams,
 * I spelled a long word out—

A word named sorrow—then I tried
 * To change it all about

To make it spell another word.
 * My mother said, "There is a way

To make the sorrow-word spell peace."
 * I've tried and tried, almost all day;

I've turned the letters round and round,
 * This way and that, to find out how,

And yet I can not find the way,
 * And supper time is coming now.
