Lesson:

1. Baby Bye,


Here's a fly;


We will watch him, you and I.


How he crawls


Up the walls,


Yet he never falls!


I believe with six such legs


You and I could walk on eggs.


There he goes


On his toes,


Tickling Baby's nose.





2. Spots of red


Dot his head;


Rainbows on his back are spread;


That small speck


Is his neck;


See him nod and beck!


I can show you, if you choose,


Where to look to find his shoes,


Three small pairs,


Made of hairs;


These he always wears.





3. Flies can see


More than we;


So how bright their eyes must be!


Little fly,


Ope your eye;


Spiders are nearby.


For a secret I can tell,


Spiders never use flies well;


Then away,


Do not stay.


Little fly, good day.
