THE BEST GAME THE FAIRIES PLAY.
The best game the fairies play,
The best game of all,
Is sliding down steeples—
You know they're very tall.
You fly to the weathercock
And when you hear it crow
You fold your wings and clutch your things,
And then you let go!
They have a million other games;
Cloud-catching's one;
And mud-mixing after rain
Is heaps and heaps of fun;
But when you go and stay with them
Never mind the rest;
Take my advice—they're very nice,
But steeple-sliding's best!
