Did you see them pass to-day, Billy, Kate and Robin, <br />All astride upon the back of old grey Dobbin? <br />Jigging, jogging off to school, down the dusty track - <br />What must Dobbin think of it - three upon his back? <br />Robin at the bridle-rein, in the middle Kate, <br />Billy holding on behind, his legs out straight. <br /> <br />Now they're coming back from school, jig, jog, jig. <br />See them at the corner where the gums grow big; <br />Dobbin flicking off the flies and blinking at the sun - <br />Having three upon his back he thinks is splendid fun: <br />Robin at the bridle-rein, in the middle Kate, <br />Little Billy up behind, his legs out straight.<br /><br />Clarence Michael James Stanislaus Dennis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/going-to-school/
