And a pretty little gown; A pretty little bonnet, With a lovely feather on it; Oh, there's not another like it To be found in all the town! My Dolly, Polly, is a precious little pet; Her eyes are bright as jewels, And her hair is black as jet; I hug her, and I kiss her! And oh, how I should miss her If she were taken from me; Oh how I should grieve and fret!

You really ought to see her To get a good idea Of the beauty of my Dolly, Polly Angelina Brown. Dolly's Wedding Come along; come along; The rain has gone away. Dingle-dong! dingle dong; It is Dolly's wedding-day! Charley has got his night-gown on. Mary has put the chairs: Charley is the clergyman Who'll marry them up-stairs.

Come along; come along; The rain has gone away. Dingle-dong! dingle dong; It is Dolly's wedding-day!

It was silly, I know, But 'twas such a surprise, The sight of their faces Brought tears to my eyes. There was poor little Flossie, With azure eyes closed. For many a month She had quietly dozed, In the little silk gown In which I last dressed her-- That time was brought back So I stopped and caressed her; And then, as I raised her, She
