 Was planned for him a pleasant jaunt Across the waters blue.

And soon from head to foot complete The little boy was dressed; But yet no breakfast could he eat, So full of joy his breast.

Ere ten o'clock their trunks were packed, And all were in array, Nor yet a piece of cake they lacked To eat upon the way.

Oh, had you seen the pretty boat With mast and sail and oar, In which the happy party float The peaceful billows o'er.

By pebbly shore and island green, Where thick the bushes grew, Each little girl and boy, I ween, Had longed to be there too.

But soon they reached the island where Their cousin kind had come With greeting fair to meet them there, And take them to his home.
