Extremes

    By James Whitcomb Riley



    I

    A little boy once played so loud
    That the Thunder, up in a thunder-cloud,
    Said, "Since I can't be heard, why, then
    I'll never, never thunder again!"




    II

    And a little girl once kept so still
    That she heard a fly on the window-sill
    Whisper and say to a lady-bird, -
    "She's the stilliest child I ever heard!"
