The Child and the Fairies
The Woods are full Of fairies!
The trees are all alive:
The river overflows witli them,
See how they dip and dive!
What funny little fellows!
What dainty little dears!
They dance and lea)), and prance and peep,
And utter fairy cheers!
I'd like to tamea fairy,
TO keep it On a shelf,
TO see it Wash its little face,
And dress its little self.
I'd teachüt pretty manners,
It always should say "Please";
And then you know I'd make itsew,
And curtsy With its knees!
