FRENCH NURSERY RHYMES.
The frog repeats: "Wut!"
The crow begins again: "What?"
At last a little linnet chirps:[1]
"The frog says like you,
Questioner, always what? what?"
PUNCH[2]
Silence! silence!
Punch approaches,
Silence! silence!

Is growing too large!
HARLEQUIN.
Harlequin in his shop,
In the marches of the palace,
Gives a music lesson
To all his little servants.
To mister Punch,
To mister I,
To mister Nel,
To mister Lo,
To mister Punchinello.
