"I can't do that, you know," said the cuckoo.

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MOON

"That after supper time has come,
And silver dews the meadow steep,
And all is silent in the home,
And even nurses are asleep,
That be it late, or be it soon,
Upon this lovely night in June
They both will step into the moon."
