THE FAIRY TAILOR
Sitting on the flower-bed beneath the hollyhocks, I spied the tiny tailor who makes the fairy frocks, There he sat a-stitching all the afternoon. And sang a little ditty to a quaint wee tune; “Brown for the little gnomes that live by themselves. Grey for the goblins, blue far the elves. White for the pixies that dance upon the green, But where shall I find a robe to deck the Fairy Queen?” —Sent in by BEATRICE EMPTAGE.
