"Dear Mrs. Lemon tell me when Belinda goes to school; And what time does she go to bed?" "Well, eight o'clock's the rule.

"Dear Mrs. Cowslip, you are kind; My little folks, I know, Will be so very pleased to come; Dears—tell Mrs. Cowslip so.

"And then I've been so worried— Clarissa had a fit; And the doctor said he couldn't In the least account for it." |
