THE DIVERS

by (1861–1937)

Listen in the reader

Two divers, one sweet summer day, Went down into the ocean, They saw the fishes all at play, The sea-flowers all in motion.

They danced a jig and sang a song, And gathered water-roses, When, lo, two lobsters came along, And bit them on their toeses.
