The Naughty Boy There was a naughty boy, And a naughty boy was he, He ran away to Scotland, The people there to see- Then he found Was as hard, That a yard Was as long, That a song Was as merry,
That a cherry Was as red, That lead Was as weighty, That fourscore Was as eighty, That a door was as wooden As in England— So he stood in his shoes And he wondered, He wondered, He stood in his shoes, And he wondered. – John Keats
SUMMARY OF THE POEM Once a naughty boy went to Scotland to see its people. There he found a ground, which was as long as a yard, a song which was joyful, the cherry which was red, the lead which was very heavy, an eighty year old eighty, and a wooden door. It was all the same as was in England. The boy stood in his shoes looking at all these things. He wondered at all these things.
