One night when the moon was big and round, Baby Blue-eyes was lost. Dear,
oh, dear, there was a terrible upset in Babyland!
Said Chubby-face, the Infant Queen, “I’m not going to rest till Blue-eyes
is found.”
And starting forth with Rosy-cheeks, her little maid-of-honor, she began
her search.
At last—oh, what joy filled her heart!—she found little Blue-eyes fast
asleep near a toad-stool!
“We won’t waken her, she is sleeping so sweetly,” she said.
And so the pair of them, (Chubby-face perching herself on the roof of the
toad-stool,) kept guard till Blue-eyes awoke with a smile.
