Text Appearing Before Image:
e shall we adventure, to-day that were afloat,Wary of the weather and steering by a star ? Shall it be to Africa, a-steering of the boat,To Providence, or Babylon, or off to Malabar 1 Hi! but heres a squadron a-rowing on .the sea —Cattle on the meadow a-charging with a roar! Quick, and we 11 escape them, they re as. mad as they can be,The wicket is the harbour and the garden is the shore. (9) u VIII FOREIGN LANDS P into the cherry tree Who should climb but little me ? I held the trunk with both my hands And looked abroad on foreign lands. I saw the next door garden lie,Adorned with flowers, before my eye,And many pleasant places moreThat I had never seen before. I saw the dimpling river passAnd be the skys blue looking-glass;The dusty roads go up and downWith people tramping in to town. If I could find a higher treeFarther and farther I should see,To where the grown-up river slipsInto the sea among the ships,(10) / held the trunk with both my handsAnd looked abroad on foreign lands.
Text Appearing After Image:
To where the roads on either handLead onward into fairy land,Where all the children dine at five,And all the playthings come alive.
