For ever will a blockhead be;
But he that learns these letters fair,
Shall have a Coach to take the Air._

PICTURE-BOOKS
Summer fading, winter comes--
Frosty mornings, tingling thumbs,
Window robins, winter rooks,
And the picture story-books.

Wait upon the children's eye,
Sheep and shepherds, trees and crooks,
In the picture story-books.
