Double Acrostic
Two little girls near London dwell,
More naughty than I like to tell.
1
Upon the lawn the hoops are seen:
The balls are rolling on the green.
2
The Thames is running deep and wide:
And boats are rowing on the tide.
3
In winter-time, all in a row,
The happy skaters come and go.
4
" Papa! " they cry, " Do let us stay! "
He does not speak, but says they may.
5
" There is a land, " he says, " my dear,
Which is too hot to skate, I fear. "
