MY LITTLE DISH-WASHERS
Oh, where are my little dish wtediery—
Illy girls with the bonnie brown lien T
They are gone awn, over the river
To flint a little friend there
And I fancy I hear their blithe footAt.pg,
An they come from their glom, of croquet
And I motile at inyeelf that I'm M 1,4111110
Because they have goon for one Ilay.

Oh where are my little tilvh.watthers—
Dly girls with the honnl.4 bniwil hair?
They are lying eeleep, coddled ill in n heap
With never a dream of care.
The name 'of dish-washer I worst them
In frolicaome mood one day
When they volunteered kindly to help me
,When my maid of all worts rue. Melly,
And we:l hare they paid rot their title
In cornice well re dered since then,
With never a scow rig nor (roe - tong
At the ma callk trade upon them

And I'm sitting alone lit lithe arlor,
And look at the rm.. of p.tin

And I think when the thAlc 1111110—
