125. oldal - FAREWELL TO THE FARM THE coach is at the door at last ; The eager children, mounting fast And kissing hands, in chorus sing : Good-bye, good-bye, to everything...
122. oldal - SWING How do you like to go up in a swing, Up in the air so blue...
188. oldal - I cried for her more than a week, dears, But I never could find where she lay. I found my poor little doll, dears, As I played...
25. oldal - Girls and boys, come out to play; The moon doth shine as bright as day; Leave your supper and leave your sleep, And come with your playfellows into the street.
