An illustration from Little pet's chatterbox, 1884, leaf 9
th-er-cock Blown ev-er-y way.Sum-mer days for me,When ev-cr-y leaf is ontree : Its When rob-ins not a beg-gar,And jen-ny wrens a bride, And larks hang sing-ing, sing-ing, sing-ing,O-ver the wheat fields wide. And an-chored lil-ies ride.And the ])en-du-lum spi-der Swinc^s from side to side. LITTLE… … Be-fore green ap-ples blush,Be-fore green nuts em-brown, Why, one day in the coun-tryIs worth a month in town— Is worth a day and a year Of the dus-ty, mus-ty, lag-last fash-ion That days drone else-where. Christina Rosetti.
