Lesson:

1. Listen to the kitchen clock!


To itself it ever talks,


From its place it never walks;


'Tick-tock-tick-tock:'


Tell me what it says.





2. 'I'm a very patient clock,


Never moved by hope or fear,


Though I've stood for many a year;


Tick-tock-tick-tock:'


That is what it says.





3. 'I'm a very truthful clock:


People say about the place,


Truth is written on my face;


Tick-tock-tick-tock:'


That is what it says.





4. 'I'm a most obliging clock;


If you wish to hear me strike,


You may do it when you like;


Tick-tock-tick-tock:'


That is what it says.





5. 'I'm a very friendly clock;


For this truth to all I tell,


Life is short, improve it well;


Tick-tock-tick-tock:'


That is what it says.





6. What a talkative old clock!


Let us see what it will do


When the hour hand reaches two;


'Ding-ding--tick-tock:'


That is what it says.
