Popular passages
Page 73 - There's a merry brown thrush sitting up in the tree ; He's singing to me ! he's singing to me ! And what does he say, little girl, little boy? Oh, the world's running over with joy. Don't you hear? don't you see? Hush ! look in my tree ! I'm as happy as happy can be.
Page 86 - Three blind mice, three blind mice, See how they run, see how they run, They all ran after the farmer's wife, She cut off their tails with a carving knife, Did you ever see such a sight in your life As three blind mice?
Page 123 - I thought the sparrow's note from heaven, Singing at dawn on the alder bough; I brought him home, in his nest, at even; He sings the song, but it cheers not now, For I did not bring home the river and sky; He sang to my ear, — they sang to my eye.
