DEDICATED TO Where she's been the sunshine lingers,
She's my witch and she's my mouse; She has helpful, fairy fingers, Busy keeper of the house. She is tricksy and she's elfish;
Sure no plague could e'er be worse; She is thoughtful and unselfish, She's my gentle angel-nurse. All their jokes the brownies lend her,
She's a merry, mischief thing; But her heart is very tender— She's a Daughter of the King. Yes, there's something nice about her,
And I'll love her till my death; No, I could not do without her— I'm her ma, Elizabeth. |
