"She wears a artful bonnet, feathers stuck upon it, Coverin a fringe all curled; Shes just about the sweetest, prettiest and neatest Doner in the wide, wide world! And shell be Missis Awkins, Missis Enry Awkins, Got er for to name the day; Settled it last Monday, so to church on Sunday, Off we trots the donkey shay!"
