What was the routine of Simon at his shop?
Chapter name - Rhyming Ink
Once upon a time there was
a good man called Simon Smug:
his wife was called Sarah and

they kept a shop.
Every morning at eight
o'clock precisely Simon unbolted
the shop-door and took up the
shutters; then he stood behind the
counter and weighed out sugar
and currants and wrapped up
parcels and made out bills and
said, "What next can I get for
ma'am? and Dreadful
you,
weather for the time of year!" to
all the customers. And every
evening as the clock struck seven,
Simon put down the shutters
again and fastened the door. "Now I'm going to enjoy myself!" he would sa
rubbing his hands with satisfaction.
Sometimes he enjoyed himself by reading the paper to Sarah; sometimes h
enjoyed himself potting about the backyard and painting the water-bult or sowin
Virginian Stock seed in the backyard; and sometimes he enjoyed himself by ju=
falling asleep in his chair.
And then one day he decided to become a poet.
"You'd be surprised at the thoughts that come into my head, Sarah, said he-
I'm going to put them into poetry and become famous."
