Slide 1**

Horrible dens, sir, aren't they? / This is one of my daily rounds

Slide 2**

She was one of a group of fairies, / And her wand was the wand up there --

Slide 3**

The woman lay sick and moaning, / Dying by slow degrees

Slide 4**

When she waved a wand of magic / As a Lilliput fairy queen

Slide 5**

She thought, as she stooped and kissed her, / And looked in the ghastly face

Slide 6**

Then, raising her wand, she waved it, / Like a fairy to and fro
