Pàgina 22 - In the dark blue sky you keep, And often through my curtains peep, For you never shut your eye Till the sun is in the sky. As your bright and tiny spark Lights the traveller in the dark, Though I know not what you are. Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
Pàgina 110 - At evening when I go to bed I see the stars shine overhead; They are the little daisies white That dot the meadow of the Night.
