But Don't You-none O' You- Think As You Own Th' Whole Orange Or You'll Find Out You're Mistaken, An' You Won't Find It Without Hard Knocks. What Children Learns From Children, Is That There's No Sense Grabbin' At Th' Whole Orange-peel An' All. If You Do You'll Likely Not Get Even Th' Pips, An' Them's Too Bitter To Eat.

There Could Have Been No Happiness Even In That Golden Springtime Air.
