If buttercup buzzed after the bee,
If boats were on land, churches in sea,
If ponies rode men and grass ate the cows,
And cats should be chased to holes by the mouse,
If the mama's sold their babies to the gypsies for half a crown,
Summer were spring and the t'other way round,
Then all the world would be upside down.
—Old English tune played at the almost battle of Salem and at the Yorktown surrender.
