The Cowslip; Or, More Cautionary Stories, in Verse
CONTENTS
A neat little Book, full of pictures was bought
For a good little girl that was glad to be taught;
She read all the tales, and then said to her mother,
I'll lend this new book to my dear little brother.
He shall look at the pictures and find O and I,
I'm sure he won't tear it he's such a good boy.
Oh no, brother Henry knows better, indeed;
Although he's too young, yet, to spell and to read.
Mrs. Turner
