------------------------------------------------------------------------

Journeying through the land of Why
You’ll meet the strangest company,
Various creatures, great and small,
And something odd about them all—
A socialistic Cockatoo;
A most mysterious thing—a Goo;
The quaintest men; a charming maid
Two ancient ladies, prim and staid;
The Wallypug—pray, who is he?
I mustn’t tell you; read and see.
