“Diez negritos se fueron a cenar; uno se asfixió y quedaron nueve. Nueve negritos estuvieron despiertos hasta muy tarde; uno se quedó dormido y entonces quedaron ocho. Ocho negritos viajaron por Devon; uno dijo que se quedaría allí y quedaron siete. Siete negritos cortaron leña; uno se cortó en dos y quedaron seis. Seis negritos jugaron con una colmena; una abeja picó a uno de ellos y quedaron cinco. Cinco negritos estudiaron Derecho; uno se hizo magistrado y quedaron cuatro. Cuatro negritos fueron al mar; un arenque rojo se tragó a uno y quedaron tres. Tres negritos pasearon por el zoo; un gran oso atacó a uno y quedaron dos. Dos negritos se sentaron al sol; uno de ellos se tostó y sólo quedó uno. Un negrito quedó sólo; se ahorcó y no quedó… ¡ninguno!”
