"Old Gaelic Lullaby." (Author unknown.)
Book: "The Posy Ring."
LATER WORK.
After the third half year any series of readers may be used. The literature of childhood, carefully selected and edited, should form the subject-matter of these reading books.
Phonic lessons based as far as possible upon the words found in the readers should be practised daily during the first three years. This later work does not differ from that of the preceding phonic lessons.
