XXV. Honour.
Reading edition
As Dick and Bryan were at play
At trap, it came to pass,
Dick struck the ball so far away,
He broke a pane of glass.
Though much alarm'd, they did not run,
But walk'd up to the spot;
And offer'd for the damage done;
What money they had got.
When accidents like this arise,
Dear children! this rely on,
All honest, honourable boys
Will act like Dick and Bryan.
