Lullaby

You are much too big to dandle,
And I will not leave the candle.
 Go to sleep.
You are growing naughty, rather,
And I’ll have to speak to father.
 Go to sleep!
If you’re good I shall not tell, then.
Oh, a story?  Very well, then.
 Once upon a time, a king, named Crawley Creep,
Had a very lovely daughter . . . .
You don’t want a drink of water!
 Go to sleep! There! There! Go to sleep.
