Here are the original six lines:
Little Polly Flinders
Sat among the cinders
Warming her pretty little toes
Her mother came and caught her
And smacked her little daughter
For spoiling her nice new clothes
These next lines were added by George Ansell:
Little Polly Flinders
Polished up the winders
Using her mother's scouring pad
Her mother when she saw it
Gave Poll a smacking for it
For scratching the windows really bad
Little Polly, later,
Ate sausage and potater,
And beans that she spilled all down her dress
Her mother cried "My daughter,
You won't do what you oughter!"
And smacked her for making such a mess
Said Little Polly, sadly,
"I may have acted badly,
But smacking is not the thing to do.
Please start behaving proper
Or I shall tell a copper
And maybe he'll do the same to you!"
Then Polly's mother Dolly,
Said "Polly I am sorry,
I've had some big problems in my head.
I've made a resolution
To find the right solution
And not just get cross with you instead"
Said Little Polly gladly
"Mama, I love you madly,
And though when you smack me it's a pain,
I'll happily forgive you,
Ten kisses I will give you
But promise you won't smack me again!"
Now Little Polly Flinders
Sits among the cinders
Warming her pretty little toes
And there beside the fire
Her mother's sitting by her
With soot on her fingers and her nose.
