TWO LITTLE GIRLS

Little Miss Selfish and Lend-a-hand

Went journeying up and down the land;

On Lend-a-hand the sunshine smiled,

The wild flowers bloomed for the happy child;

Birds greeted her from many a tree;

But Selfish said, “No one loves me”

Little Miss Selfish and Lend-a-hand

Went journeying home across the land;

Miss Selfish met with trouble and loss-

The weather was bad, the folks were cross;

Lend-a-hand said, when the journey was o’er,

“I never had such a good time before.”
