Poor Ern stood and shivered with fright
As he waited alone in the night.
It made it's approach,
In a glittering coach,

It made it's approach,
In a glittering coach,
'Tis loving and giving that makes life worth living.

Quite heedless of Ern's dire sad plight.

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)
