— Priscilla Leonard, in the Churchman

By Priscilla Leonard

Sixty questions make an hour, One for every minute; And Neddy tries, with all his might, To get more questions in it.

Sixty questions make an hour, And as for a reply, The wisest sage would stand aghast At Neddy’s searching “Why?”

Sixty questions make an hour, And childhood’s hours are brief, So Neddy has no time to waste, Nor pauses for relief.

Sixty questions make an hour, Presto! why, where’s Ned? Alas! he’s gone, and in his place A question point instead!
