He mused upon this curious case, And swore he'd change the pigtail's place, And have it hanging at his face, Not dangling there behind him.

I'll turn me round," - he turned him round; But still it hung behind him. Then round and round, and out and in, All day the puzzled sage did spin; In vain - it mattered not a pin - The pigtail hung behind him.

And though his efforts never slack, And though he twist and twirl, and tack, Alas!
