Rossetti, Christina Georgina, 1830-1894, Hughes, Arthur, 1832-1915, ill · London : Macmillan · leaf 114
When the cows come home the milk is coming,Honey s made while the bees are humming ;Duck and drake on the rushy lake,And the deer live safe in the breezy brake ;And timid, funny, brisk little bunny,Winks his nose and sits all sunny. 92 … Roses blushing red and white, For delight ;Honeysuckle wreaths above, For love ;Dim sweet-scented heliotrope, For hope ;Shining lilies tall and straight, For royal state ;Dusky pansies, let them be For memory ;With violets of fragrant breath, For death. 93
