AS Dick and Bryan were at play At trap, it came to pass, Dick struck the ball, so far away, He broke a pane of glass. Though much alarmed, they did not run, But walk'd up to the spot; And offer'd for the damage done What money they had got. When accidents like this arise, Dear children! this rely on, All honest, honourable boys Will act like Dick and Bryan. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...DEVOURER OF NATIONS by STEPHEN VINCENT BENET LOVE'S MIRACLE by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON REVIEW by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON A CERTAIN POET ON THE DEBATES by EDGAR LEE MASTERS SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: EDITH CONANT by EDGAR LEE MASTERS |
