The Adventures Of Paddy The Beaver in "Paddy The Beaver Begins Work."

Work, work all the night
While the stars are shining bright;
Work, work all the day;
I have got no time to play.

This little rhyme Paddy the Beaver made up as he toiled at building the dam which was to make the pond he so much desired deep in the Green Forest. Of course it wasn't quite true, that about working all night and all day. Nobody could do that, you know, and keep it up.
