A Song
“All you novice bee-keepers”
All you novice bee-keepers,
Pray listen to my story
Its all about a stock of bees
Which was my pride and glory.For two long years I nursed those bees
Until they gave a swarm.
T'was early in the month of June.
The weather then was warmWhen the swarm came sure I was glad
I thought I'd make my neaddy
I quickly furnished a new hive
And every thing got ready.I ran quickly up the ladder.
Like a sailor in a ship.
And on a branch right over them(continues on next page)- Collector
