The Brownie Men

The Brownie Men.

By M. Nora Boylan.

(An exercise tor four little boys. They wear padded trousers of some cheap brown material and a loose shirt of same material in place of the school jacket. Skull-caps of same material, worn jauntity. Broad white rings about the eyes and charcoal lines upon face to produce resemblance to pictured Brownies.(elves or fairies) Jolly smiles and capers. Join hands and hop on one foot around tree or 'eader, before, between, and after verses.)

Merry, merry sprites are we,

Dancing round the Christmas tree.

We've a gift for every one

Though the last one is just done.

This has been a busy year,

And we hope we bring you cheer,

And when Christmas comes again,

Look for us -- The Brownie men.
