LATIN WORRIES We have a language in our land It came from far away, , .And now our pupils study it And use it everyday. This language contains many things No matter what We study, We wonder how they could expect Q That it be used by everybody. There are some Words to conjugate And many to decline, You get the tenses all mixed up, But learn the cases fine. And then there are vocabularies Which contain most verbs and nouns, In verbs we learn principal parts And in nouns the cases sound. But if this language had not been, No English would be heard, Because it was from Latin We got almost every word. Priscilla Davis, Term VIII
