| FACING PAGE | ||||
| ||||
| With big tin trumpet and little red drum, Marching like soldiers, the children come! |
||||
| ||||
| | And you carry away of the treasure that rains As much as your apron can hold! |
|||
| ||||
| | Wynken, Blynken and Nod one night Sailed off in a wooden shoe— Sailed on a river of crystal light, Into a sea of dew. |
|||
| ||||
| | John took a bite and Sue a chew, And then the trouble began to brew,— Trouble the doctor could n't subdue. Too true! |
|||
| ||||
| | In an ocean, 'way out yonder (As all sapient people know), Is the land of Wonder-Wander, Whitherchildren love to go. |
|||
| ||||
| And the Fly-Away Horse seeks those far-away lands You little folk dream of at night— |
||||
| ||||
| | Shuffle-Shoon and Amber-Locks Sit together, building blocks; Shuffle-Shoon is old and gray, Amber-Locks a little child. |
|||
| ||||
| | I woke up in the dark an' saw things standin' in a row, A-lookin' at me cross-eyed an' p'intin' at me—so! |
