' 1. ?The Teds have watched v young 'Johnny toO
In digging . up , the garden soiL
Inspired by his noble "zeal
"We, too; will dig!" they shout and squeal
2.0h, naughty. Teds! They-dig and dig
And make a hole botlj' deep and big.
With water cold they fill, thepit
And tie a string in! front of it.
S.tThey raise the hose.with'careful ain
No sound gives warning of their game;.
Nor does a sound the fact betray
That Johnny's father's walked that;way.
4. - Oh, naughty Teds ! Why should you joy
To drench that good, industrious boy
You'd best look twice before you do it.
Or else I fear that you will rue it!

Who rushes at them, hopping mad.
Across the tight-drawn string he stumbles, ,
And straight wax. in,thewater. tumbles
6. ,The bears decide they will not wait
To worry o'er their, victim fate. -"
John watches them with gleeful face,
.And cheers them inji cinf riniic "rser, .
