a SLEEPY SONG.

As soon as the fire burns red and low,
And the house upstairs is still.
She sings me a queer little sleepy song
OF sheep that 20 over the hill.
The good little sheep run quick and soft,
Their eolors are gray and white
They follow their leader nose to tail,
For they must be home by night.
And one slips over and one comes next,
And one runs after behind,
The gray ones nose at the white ones
tail
The top Of the hill they ind.
And when they get TO the top Of the hill
They quietly slip away
But one runs over and one comes next
Their coloFs are white and gray.
And over they go. and over they 20,
And over the top Of The hill
The good little sheep run thick and fast,
And the house upstairs IS STILL
And one slips over and one comes next,
The good little, gray little sheep.
I watch how the ire burns red and low,
And she says that fall asleep.
