COMICAL FOLK

    In a cottage in Fife
    Lived a man and his wife
Who, believe me, were comical folk;
    For, to people’s surprise,
    They both saw with their eyes,
And their tongues moved whenever they spoke!

    When they were asleep,
    I’m told, that to keep
Their eyes open they could not contrive;
    They both walked on their feet,
    And ’twas thought what they eat
Helped, with drinking, to keep them alive!
