Example:
Hi Ho The Merry-O
The farmer in the dell Was singing merrily, Working in the hayfield
While the wind was blowing free. The autumn scene was picturesque With the hay stacked row on row.
He had been working from early dawn Until the sun was getting low. As he came to 1 1/4 haystacks, And nearby 1 1/4 again, He added them together. What was his total then?
