NURSERY FURNITURE.
Harry can skip, or jump, or play,
Just at his own desire;
But once he was a careless boy,
And went too near the fire.
And had not nurse, with watchful eye,
Beheld, and quickly turn'd
His pinafore had caught the flame,
His hair had all been burn'd.
Papa had seen a guard so nice,
That fitted round a fire;
He order'd one for Harry's room,
With closely platted wire.
