The great panjandrum himself (1885)
-
-
So she went into the garden to cut a cabbage-leaf to make an apple-pie;
And at the same time a great she-bear, coming down the street,
Pops its head into the shop. What! No soap?
So he died, and she very imprudently married the Barber:
And there were present the Picninnies, and the Joblillies, and the Garyulies,
And the great Panjandrum himself, with the little round button at top;
And they all fell to playing the game of catch-as-catch-can,
Till the gunpowder ran out at the heels of their boots.Location: Caldecott, Randolph (1885) The Great Panjandrum Himself. London: George Routledge & Sons. Parker Collection A087.1/1885 Early and Fine Printing Collection
