YES or No? Stay or Go? He never can tell, he never will know! We must not wait, We'll all be late, While Barnaby puzzles his queer little pate! What do you say? Off and away! Make up your mind to go or to stay. Fix on your plan, Step out like a man, And follow your nose as fast as you can! [Illustration] [Illustration] SLEEPING. DO all your sleeping at night, For then niddy-noddy is right; But awake you must keep, And it won't do to sleep, In the middle of broad daylight. The sun at the end of the day Takes his mighty great candle away; A curtain on high Is drawn over the sky, And the stars peep thro' if they may. There's the curtain of night over all, There's our own window-curtain so small, And least in their size, Over Emily's eyes Her fringed little eyelids will fall. She kneels at the side of her bed, And softly her prayers are said; Now, a kiss, my Dear; Come, Angels, near, And keep watch round the little one's bed. [Illustration] A SWING SONG. SWING, swing, Sing, sing, Here's my throne, and I am a King! Swing, sing, Swing, sing, Farewell earth, for I'm on the wing! Low, high, Here I fly, Like a bird through sunny sky; Free, free, Over the lea, Over the mountain, over the sea! Up, down, Up and down, Which is the way to London Town? Where, where? Up in the air, Close your eyes, and now you are there! Soon, soon, Afternoon, Over the sunset, over the moon; Far, far, Over all bar, Sweeping on from star to star! No, no, Low, low, Sweeping daisies with my toe. Slow, slow, To and fro, Slow---- slow------ slow-------- slow. [Illustration: Music] Swing, swing, sing, sing, Here's my throne and I am a King! Swing, sing, swing, sing, Farewell, earth, for I'm on the wing! [Illustration] [Illustration] BIRDS' NAMES.
