The Obdurate Eye, From Garth Spencer, who writes:

So she went into the garden to cut a cabbage leaf to make an apple pie; and while she was there, a great she-bear in the street put its head through the kitchen window. “What! No soap?” So he died, and she very imprudently married the gardener; and there were the Joblillies, and the Pickninnies, and the Grand Panjandrum with the little round button at top, and they all fell to playing catch-as-catch-can, until the gunpowder ran out at the heels of their boots.
