User-Contributed Transcription You have heard of the "woman who lived in the shoe"
But are you aware that this story is true
In more than case? Do you know there are others
Very generously favored_ for instance with brothers?
And you who have ten must feel very lucky,
Yet I who have none, though persistent and plucky
Would constantly fear that my counting might err
If suddenly asked just how many
(over)
