"BEG, DOGGIE, BEG!"

Reading edition

Beg, doggie, beg: Come, come, sit up,— No, not that way, you silly pup; Upon your hind legs sit, And I will tell you how to ask For bread—it is an easy task; And then you'll get a bit. Now there—that's right—keep up your paw! A better dog I never saw. Oh dear! you're down once more: I cannot let you off: Now try, Oh, Jack, I really fear that I Have got a "treat" in store; Look at this cake. Now, sit upright And stare at me with all you're might, And then I'll place the food: That's well: Now, doggie,—quite still— You must not stir an inch until I tell you,—come, that's good! One trial more, and you shall eat This great round cake, just for a treat: Now sit up, Jacky—so, Ask for it, sir—just say "bow-wow"— And louder still! There make your bow— Good dog! now you may go.
