1. Cried Johnny, "Wouldn't it be fun 2. So Johnny rolkd with extra skill
To roll a ball that weighed a ton! Until they started down the hill;
Twould stand up higher than the steeple, And then the snowball seemed to say,
And frighten .all the village people." "The time has come for me to play!"
& It gave the Teddies tit for tat
' It rolled them up and pressed them flat;
Nor did it mind the heavy load,
But hurried faster down the road.
4. And faster still it whirled around,
And scarcely seemed to touch the ground.
The Teds were breathless, deaf and dumb
Prepared for any death to come.
3. Along the village street they flew
The. snowball swerved a foot or two,
And toward the sidewalk made" a'-dash
And then. ob. borrorst Bans) kef-smash!
6. John's father saw them, fly to. tits,
And almost had conniption fits.
He gathered in the tearful- bunch
And dried them -off in tirae"'for lunch.
