Little Wideawake: A story book for little children

by Mrs. Sale Barker

Violets thicken on the hill,

And the fields look sparkling bright,

With the clover, red and white.

3.

When it patters, when it pours,

Little folks are kept in-doors,

Looking through the window pane,

Covered o’er by drops of rain;

While its tinkling sound repeats,

“Blossoms crown the earth with sweets.”
