THE FAIRY BALL.

"I am asked to the ball to-night, to-night;

What shall I wear, for I must look right?"

"Search in the fields for a lady's-smock;

Where could you find you a prettier frock?"

"I am asked to the ball to-night, to-night;

What shall I do for my jewels bright?"

"Trouble you not for a brooch or a ring,

A daisy-chain is the properest thing."

"I am asked to the ball to night, to-night;

What shall I do if I shake with fright?"

"When you are there you will understand

That no one is frightened in Fairyland."
