Rossetti, Christina Georgina, 1830-1894, Hughes, Arthur, 1832-1915, ill · London : Macmillan · leaf 153
Crimson curtains round my mothers bed, Silken soft as may be ;Cool white curtains round about my bed, For I am but a baby. … Baby lies so fast asleep That we cannot wake her : Will the Angels clad in whiteFly from heaven to take her ? Baby lies so fast asleep That no pain can grieve her ;Put a snowdrop in her hand, Kiss her once and leave her. 132
