An illustration from Sing-song : a nursery rhyme book, 1915, leaf 31
There s snow on the fields,And cold in the cottage, While I sit in the chimney nookSupping hot pottage. My clothes are soft and warm, Fold upon fold,But I m so sorry for the poor Out in the cold. … Dead in the cold, a song-singing thrush,Dead at the foot of a snowberry bush,-Weave him a coffin of rush,Dig him a grave where the soft mosses grow,Raise him a tombstone of snow. 10
