ase.
While Wendy sits mending their shirtwaists and hose,
And the Redskins above Keep watch against foes.

[Illustration: V]

_V is the Verse_

V's the Vile Verse that the Pirate Bawled--
It was not his language so much that appalled,
Nor the Tune--nor his Voice which was Raucus and Deep
'Twas _the way that he sang it_ That made your flesh creep.

[Illustration: W]

_W's Wolves_

W's wolves--'Tis said they will fly
If you look through your legs at them straight in the eye.
That's how the Boys did it, but if I were you,
I'd experiment first on a wolf in the Zoo.

[Illustration: X]

_X is the X Ray_

X is the X Ray by whose light alone,
This last fleeting picture of Hook may be shown.

[Illustration: Y]

_Y is for Youth_

Y is for _Youth_ to which Peter clung,
But where is the land where he learned to Stay Young?
Ask Peter, he'll tell you, Geography scorning,
"Second Turn to the Right and keep straight on till Morning."

[Illustration: Z]

_Z is the Zebra_

Z is the Zebra the Boys _didn't_ meet,
But without which no Alphabet's really complete.
