And pressing her fingers over her face, Life has better things in store Says with a schoolgirl's hearty grace, For her, yet o'er and o'er, "Bushel o' wheat, bushel o' rye, "Bushel o' wheat, bushel o' rye, Who aint ready holler I.'' Who aint ready holler I." The years on swifter wings have flown, The maideu, now a woman grown, The children hear the warning rhyme Sighs as with sadder heart she hears And scamper away in lively time.

Of ''Bushel o' wheat, bushel o' rye, Who aint ready holler I."
