When the Five went off on a hike.
George insisted on taking her bike,
But Dick said "Oh no!"
"On the bus we must go,"
"Or else you can walk if you like ".

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)
