Jack Jelf

Little Jack Jelf

Was put on the shelf

Because he could not spell "pie?;

When his aunt, Mrs. Grace,

Saw his sorrowful face,

She could not help saying, "Oh, fie!"

And since Master Jelf

Was put on the shelf

Because he could not spell "pie".

Let him stand there do grim,

And no more about him,

For I wish him a very goodbye!
