"Round Nature's Dial," by H. M. Burnside, tells full and clear
The shifting story of the times and seasons of the year.
The "Annual" for "Every Boy" affords all boys a treat,
Which, thanks to Edmund Routledge, may be held as quite complete.
Here "Caldecott's last 'Graphic' Pictures" come in handy guise,
While by her "Book" consulting, the "Young Lady" may grow wise.
How good we'd be if all, before they do, to think would tarry
On what Miss Edgeworth taught to "Lucy," "Rosamond," and "Harry."
"Natural History," Illustrated "for Young People," must do good,
As a text-book for young children, ably done by F. G. Wood.
