Mr Brown and his wife are awakened by a mouse

There came into his eyes a dreamy expression

She could dream of nothing else but her new Bicycle

But on her maid awakening her in the morning finds she has been dreaming it all

Mr Morpheus' sweet slumbers disturbed by a flea

He continues the search, even in his nightcap

Determined to find him he turns up the bed

Ah! he feels him in his stocking. He gets up

And, by holding the candle close, discovers his enemy

Fearing that he may hop away, he wets his finger

He has got him at last, but he may hop yet

With the aid of a pin he burns him in the candle

She knew she was sinkin' quickly -- she knew her end was nigh

I sat and watched her dying, holding her wasted hand

When the door of the room burst open, and my mates were there

'You've never refused to go, John; you'll put these cowards right'

'I can't go, mate,' I murmured, 'in an hour she may be dead'

She whispered, 'Go, and God's will be done!'

My mates came in and whispered; they'd heard I was comin' round

Presently Ben goes out, the others slink away like

I thought it must be a vision as my weak eyes gazed upon

He'd knelt by his mother's bed, and the sudden joy had saved her

My old eyes woke from darkness to look on my son and wife

And the boy lay in a dozy sort of state in the south bedroom

'Yes, my boy,' began the Captain, sitting down beside him

His visitor rose gently and made on tiptoe for the door
