Rossetti, Christina Georgina, 1830-1894, Hughes, Arthur, 1832-1915, ill · London : Macmillan · leaf 131
I have a little husband And he is gone to sea,The winds that whistle round his ship Fly home to me. The winds that sigh about me Return again to him ;So I would fly, if only I Were light of limb. 109 … The dear old woman in the lane Is sick and sore with pains and aches, We 11 go to her this afternoon, And take her tea and eggs and cakes. We 11 stop to make the kettle boil,And brew some tea, and set the tray, And poach an egg, and toast a cake,And wheel her chair round, if we may. IIO
