NOVEMBER SECOND

Heigh ho! Daisies and buttercups!

Mother shall weave them a daisy chain;

Sing them a song of the pretty hedge sparrow,

That loved her brown little ones, loved them full fain:

Sing, "Heart, thou art wide though the house be but narrow";

Sing once and sing it again.

Jean Ingelow

NOVEMBER THIRD

Fair little children, morning-bright,

With faces grave, yet soft to sight,

Expressive of restrained delight.

Mrs. Browning

NOVEMBER FOURTH

Our youth! Our childhood! That spring of springs!

'T is surely one of the blessedest things

That nature ever intended.

Hood

NOVEMBER FIFTH

Ah how good a school is the school of home!

Anatole France

NOVEMBER SIXTH

Loving she is and tractable, though wild;

And innocence hath privilege in her

To dignify arch looks and laughing eyes.

Wordsworth
