Page 104 - All things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful, The Lord God made them all.
Page 107 - Where the bee sucks, there suck I; In a cowslip's bell I lie: There I couch when owls do cry. On the bat's back I do fly, After summer, merrily : Merrily, merrily, shall I live now, Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
