Images worth remembering!
Lady Winter
Lady Winter clothed in ermine
On the North Wind gallops in,
Over crystal bridges bright,
Over carpets snowy white.
.
See the North Wind snorting, prancing,
Scare the leaves that, romping, dancing,
Cease their merriment and play
And hurrying, scurrying, run away.

NED’S HORSE.
And he learned the fact that as a rule,
No mending is done without a tool,
And he carried his horse to a carpenter,
Who said, “I’ll mend it, my little sir.”
And really he mended the head so well
That the broken place you could hardly tell,
And proud as a lord was gallant Ned
Who mounted his hobby-horse and said,
“You never could mend a live horse’s-head,
So I’ll keep my wooden one instead.”

Little Bo-Peep And Other Good Stories.
Henry Altemus Company: Philadelphia. 1905.
I had a little pony,
His name was Dapple-gray,
I lent him to a lady,
To ride a mile away;
She whipped him, she slashed him,
She rode him through the mire;
I would not lend my pony now
For all the lady’s hire.

Way down the Scottish glen rode fast the fairy men,
Each upon a cricket thoroughbred, sir.
They were quite plainly seen, dressed all in hunter’s green
With thistles in their jockey caps of red, sir.
