Jack and the Beanstalk

The original 1905 publication included the following poem:
O let’s pretend the keyboard is a beanstalk tall and lean,
And let’s pretend your hands are legs,…the legs of Jack, I mean;
Then let’s pretend Jack climbs the stalk and steals the giant’s hoard…
For true enough he stole it while the wicked monster snored!
Now let’s pretend the giant wakes and lifts his awful face,
And gives a most terrific roar away down in the bass;
Then let’s pretend, in hot pursuit, the beanstalk he descends:
Jack cuts it down! The giant falls! ‘Tis so the story ends.
