 the sights of London Town
 * Which little visitors wish to view,

The Tower stands first, and its great renown
 * Has, you will notice, attracted Prue.

At a well-known spot, to Miss Prue's surprise,
 * Some fine old ravens are strutting about.

If upon the picture a glance you cast,
 * You will know the ravens next time, no doubt.

The red-coated guard who's watching here
 * Is called a Beefeater–fancy that!

And Prue discovers, as she draws near
 * A child by his side who is round and fat.

"Father and Mother, pray come here,"
 * In tones so pleasant, laughs lively Prue:

"You've shown me things that are odd and queer,
 * A Beefeater's baby I'll show you!"
