The larkspurs growing tall.
You wreathed in pink and blue.
Within your prayer-books small:
The cupboards carved both in and out.
With curious. prlckly vine.
And smelling far and fine:
The pictures In row.
or folk you did not know:
The toys. the games the shrill. gay rout;
The lanterns. that at hour for bed.
