ASTONISHMENT

 


ASTONISHMENT - A Poem

By G.S.O.

WELL, I do declare, what a terrified stare! 
What can be the matter, I say, 
That you look so amazed, with your eyebrows upraised, 
And your master's milk running away?  

O is it the rector, policeman, or spectre? 
Or is it a lad for a spree 
Got up in full fig, and a mask as a brigand? 
Or is it an owl in the tree? 

Or is it a squeak that has whitened your cheek,
 And made your hands useless with dread? 
Or the rustle of leaves in the wind by the eaves? 
Or a rat running over your head? 

Or are you afraid of a shadow that's made 
By the moon as she peeps through a chink? 
Come, hold the pan tight, or a supperless night, 
And a flogging, will greet you, I think. 

Though he walks with a swagger, a lath for a dagger, 
Jack Brown is Jack Brown, and no more; 
A goblin is nought but a fanciful thought, 
That squeak was a mouse, or a door. 

And no one need mind the stout Constable Bind, 
If he hasn't done anything ill; 
Good boys, we are told, as a lion are bold, 
When he roams the dark waste at his will. 

To the lad full of fear the hobgoblins appear, 
But the hero they never molest; 
He laughs at white sheets and such moonshine deceits, 
For he minds but his work and his rest. 

Too busy for ghosts, for his tasks come in hosts, 
And a hundred odd jobs he must do:
Too sleepy at night to lie shaking in fright, 
When the solemn old owl says, 'To-whoo! 

Come, Bobby, look up or the kittens will sup 
All the precious milk wasting away; 
Do mind what you're at, or the thanks of the cat 
Are all you will get, boy, to-day! 
         .
Boys want all their senses for tables and tenses, 
For their games and a thousand things more; 
Your wits, Bob, they dream-don t you hear the 
white stream 
As it falls with a splash on the floor?

And here I must stare like a fool, I declare! 
Only think, Mister Hunt, what you've done! 
While the world wants a book like a soft I must 
look, 
And the milk that is running, must run! 

Yes, so it must be; then take warning by me, 
Mind you always look knowing and clever, 
Be you youngsters or men, lest some Hunt come 
again, 
And make you a greenhorn for ever!
