Funny Alphabet Uncle Franks' Series

Excerpt

THE FUNNY

A was an Actor,

’Tis clear to your view:

B was three Boys,

Forming letters for you.

C was a clown, who clever was found.

D was a dunce, and Harlequin bound,

E was soon formed with the aid of a child,

F in a frolic appear’d to be wild.

G was George Godfrey, a truant I fear,

H hand in hand, like two pillars appear.

I was an Indian figure for thee:

J was Jemima Mermaid, only see.

K was Kail Knowledge, to Kew he was bound,

L was Luke Lazy, he’s now on the ground.

M Master Merryman, mark what I say,

N Neddy Noodle the Vicar of Bray.

O Obadiah a letter quite round,

P Paul Plaintive, in Pleasure was found,

Q quit was, in shape much like O,

R Robin Roughead, I’d have you to know.

S Simon Sobersides, serious and soft,

T Timothy Touchstone, tomboy and torch,

U Uniform, Union, and Unicorn trot,

V very vexatious his letters forgot.

W Walter and William

Were vex’d,

X in the Alphabet,

Is sure to stand next.

Y was a Youngster,

He’d play with his betters;

Z was a Zany,

For not knowing his letters.
