An illustration from Chimes for childhood, 1868, leaf 206
ep,In the moss so deep,Vvhile the noon is so warm and so weary,And sweetly awake,As the sun through the brakeBids the robin and white-throat sing cheery. The quicken is tufted with blossoms of snow, And is throwing its perfume around it;The wryneck replies to the cuckoos halloo,For joy that again… … Here ye may sleej)^ in tJie moss so deep,While the noon is so xvarm and so %veary-(201)
