Arnold, the Juggler: IInd Prize!

Arnold is an irrepressible performer who reminds one of Chaplin.

Arnold, The Juggler

The stage performer Arnold
Contorts himself Chaplinesque,
As we laugh at his antics bold

Now he juggles some thirteen balls
And presto! Eleven fall down!
As the crowd starts its cat-calls

He is smooth, that you can admit,
Now he is doffs his peaked hat gaily
And goes back into the green room to sit.
