Miss Molly And The Little Fishes.

By Kate Greenaway

Oh, sweet Miss Molly, You're so fond Of Fishes in a little Pond. And perhaps they're glad To see you stare With such bright eyes Upon them there. And when your fingers and your thumbs Drop slowly in the small white crumbs I hope they're happy. Only this When you've looked long enough, sweet miss. Then, most beneficent young giver, Restore them to their native river.
