The Artful Dodger met Oliver Twist
"I'll be your friend,if you really insist, now come with me and we will see a great old man, who's names is Fagan"
Dodger took him to Fagans lair, a tall skinny man with long unkempt hair.
"Meet Oliver Fagan, he's hungry inside"
Fagan turned around, and with his eyes did spy
"So Oliver me boy, do you want to live here"
"Yes please sir" Oliver said and gave out a cheer
"Good boy" said Fagan "you've nothing to fear, lets play a game, so come over here"

Dodger and his mates filled Fagans coat, with jewels,and silk scarves, Fagan did gloat.
"Show him boys" he said, and they all danced with glee, who removed the gifts, as easily as can be.
"So you see my boy it's only a game, but don't get caught, or we'll be in the frame"
Knock knock at the door it was Nancy who came, a good looking girl, so slender a dame.
"Open up Fagan its me Bill Sykes" a huge big man, with a dog by his leg "Bullseye sit down" it dared not beg.
"Come hear boy" he said to Oliver Twist, and held firm to Olivers wrist.
"Tonight my son, you are with me, but beware my boy do not cross me"
That night Oliver and Bill went to a house "get in their boy, and be quite like a mouse" Oliver went in and picked up some swag, and gave it to Bill, who put it in a bag. "Good boy" he said "now lets get you home"
Next day Oliver went out with Dodger and the boys, who tricked a gent, by making some noise, and stole some money, which they thought was funny, But quick was the man, who looked at them all, and grabbed Oliver, who was now caught, who was taken to court, but the man took pity, what a shame poor boy alone in this city. He took him home, and looked after him, as Oliver Twist was his next of kin.
