Rossetti, Christina Georgina, 1830-1894, Hughes, Arthur, 1832-1915, ill · London : Macmillan · leaf 107
Minnie bakes oaten cakes, Minnie brews ale,All because her Johnny s coming Home from sea.And she glows like a rose, Who was so pale, And Are you sure the church clock goes ?Says she. … A white hen sitting On white eggs three :Next, three speckled chickens As plump as plump can be. An owl, and a hawk, And a bat come to see :But chicks beneath their mothers wing Squat safe as safe can be. 86
