“As he had often done before...”
(continued from previous page)But ah they did not mind a bit
What great Agrippa said of it
And went on laughing as before
And hooting at the black-a-moor.Then great Agrippa foams with rage
Just look at him on this very page
He sizes Arthur, seizes Ned
Takes William by his little head
And they may scream and kick and call
Into the ink he dips them all,
Into the inkstand one, two, three,
Til they are black as black can be,
Look underneath and you shall see.See there they are and there they run
The black-a-moor enjoys the fun.
They have been made as black as crows
Quite black all over eyes and nose,
And legs, and arms, and heads, and toes,
And trousers, pinafores and toys.
The silly little inky boys because they set up such a roar and teased the little black-a-moor.- Collector
