Backward left-hand gesture will place "Chelsea beach" in rear, and it may be separated widely from "Misery Isles" by locating latter well forward with right-hand gesture. Stentorian voice, before mentioned, now demands coloring of indignation and authority.
X.
Enumerate on fingers "the witches, the broomsticks, the cats;" then separate hands, as you say "and all." Point out "railway train." Negative nods will render emphatic "don't" found twice in line 8. Finish stanza by bringing right fist determinedly down upon left palm as you say "you have got to lug."
XI.
These concluding stanzas demand little action-work, but very much of particular attention to explanatory emphasis, given in bright, conversational manner, taking care not to lose a point. Little twitch may be used when you say "he gives a twitch;" also another negative nod, when you say "you can't see her." Introduce after "hark!" imitation of sound made by electric car.
XII.
Impetuous forward movement will describe "rushing," letting hand remain extended, but turning it supinely during next line. This gesture merges into ascendant as you say "it couldn't be those wires above," and finishes by movement of hand descriptive of alternative pulling and shoving. Shake forefinger and nod head impressively on "but now you know." Conclude in bright, easy, natural manner.

"Aroon! aroon! arouse thee, and hie thee o'er the moor!
Ten miles away there's bread, they say, to feed the starving poor.
