+
+
+  "Come Jane," said grandmamma one day,
+  "'Tis time you learned to sew;
+  At your age I could make a frock,
+  And you should also know."
+
+  But Jane cared little for such things;
+  She liked to make a noise;
+  She used to run about all day,
+  And shout, and play with boys.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  So now she only tossed her head
+  And ran with eager feet,
+  And soon was racing up and down,
+  And playing in the street.
+
+  Once Jane was to a party asked;
+  Her friends would all be there;
+  She wore her best sprigged muslin frock,
+  And ribbons tied her hair.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  When she was shown upstairs to lay
+  Her hat upon the bed,
+  She saw a little basket there,
+  With needles, wax and thread.
+
+  "I wonder," said untidy Jane,
+  "If Mattie likes to sew;
+  I'm glad that I have never learned;
+  I should not care to know."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  With that she laughed and ran downstairs,
+  But on the way--ah see!
+  She's caught her skirt upon a nail
+  And torn it terribly.
+
+  If Jane had learned from grandmamma
+  She might have mended it,
+  But she had been a thoughtless child
+  And could not sew a bit.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  So with her frock all torn, into
+  The room she had to go,
+  And all the children wondering stared
+  To see her looking so;
+
+  Then when Jane played it caught her feet
+  And almost made her fall;
+  That shamed her so she ran away
+  And tried to hide from all.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  When nurse at last was sent for her,
+  How glad was little Jane;
+  She almost thought she never wished
+  To romp or play again.
+
+  "Oh! grandmamma, dear grandmamma,
+  Indeed, indeed," said she,
+  "If now you'll teach me how to sew
+  A thankful child I'll be."
+
+
+
+
+BOISTEROUS ANN
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  A noisy boisterous child was Ann,
+  And very far from good;
+  She did not play the pleasant games
+  That little children should;
+  With rumpled hair and dresses torn
+  She came home every day;
+  In vain mamma said, "Ann, pray learn
+  To be less rude at play."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Now little Ann came home one time
+  In a most piteous plight,
+  For she had fallen in the mud;
+  Indeed she was a sight.
+  The housemaid standing in the door
+  Exclaimed, "What child is this?"
+  "Why, Hannah, can't you see I'm Ann?"
+  Cried out the little miss.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "Our little Ann in rags and dirt,
+  Her hair all out of curl;
+  No, no," cried Hannah; "run away,
+  You little beggar girl.
+  If it is scraps of bread you want
+  Go to the kitchen door;
+  I can't believe you're any child
+  I ever saw before."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Now Ann has to the kitchen run
+  With tears and streaming eyes;
+  "Oh, dear cook, please to let me in:
+  I'm little Ann," she cries.
+  "What little Ann?" the good cook says;
+  "Indeed that cannot be.
+  Our Ann would never wear such rags
+  I'm very sure; not she!"
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But as Ann, weeping, turned away,
+  Her little dog ran out,
+  And he began to lick her hands,
+  And bark and jump about.
+  "Why, why," cried cook, "I never saw
+  Dog Towzer act that way,
+  Except when little Ann came home
+  From school or after play."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "And now I look again," she said,
+  "You are our little Ann.
+  Come in and wash and mend your frock,
+  As quickly as you can."
+  Now from that day the little miss
+  Has played less boisterous plays,
+  And been more tidy in her dress
+  And quiet in her ways.
+
+
+
+
+THE BROTHER AND SISTER
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  Their mother bids them run and play,
+  But not to wander far away.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "Quick," Gretel cries, "let's catch that hare
+  Among the bushes over there."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  The hare now leads them in the chase
+  Close by the witch's lurking-place.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "No use," she cries "to kick and fight,
+  For I will pick your bones to-night."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  The old witch then puts on the pot,
+  That she may boil Hans when it's hot.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But while she whets her knife outside
+  Gretel opens the cage door wide.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  The children see a barrel near;
+  "Quick! into it! The witch is here!"
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  In after them the witch goes too,
+  But she is stuck, and can't get through.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And now, ker-splash! down in the ditch
+  They roll the barrel and the witch.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And see! her little girl and boy
+  The mother welcomes home with joy.
+
+
+
+
+GEORGIE LIE-A-BED
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  "Come, come, get up," cried nurse to George;
+  "The breakfast table's spread;
+  The porridge will be getting cold,
+  And you are still in bed."
+  George only sighed and turned about,
+  And went to sleep once more.
+  Now did you ever know of such
+  A lazy child before?
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  When little George at last arose
+  The sun was overhead;
+  He looked about, no clothes he saw;
+  "Where can they be?" he said.
+  "Nurse, nurse," he cried, "where are my clothes?
+  I do not see them here."
+  "Why, no," said nurse, "you will not find
+  Your clothes to-day, I fear;
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Some other child has now your suit,
+  Because I thought, indeed,
+  If you were going to lie in bed,
+  Your clothes you would not need.
+  But if you really wish to dress
+  And go to school, see there,
+  The little dress a year ago
+  Your sister used to wear."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Now how ashamed is little George
+  To have to dress like that;
+  To have to wear his sister's frock,
+  Her ribbons and her hat.
+  Now in the street the children point
+  And stare as he goes by;
+  "Come look at Georgie-Lie-a-Bed,
+  How he is dressed," they cry.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Now little George is so ashamed
+  To have them see him so,
+  He turns about and home he runs
+  As fast as he can go.
+  "Oh, mother dear," he cries, "if I
+  May have my clothes once more,
+  I'll try to be a better boy
+  Than I have been before."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "Why," says mamma, "since that's the case,
+  And you repent, my dear,
+  Your little trousers, shirt, and coat--
+  Just see--they all are here."
+  And since that day mamma and nurse
+  Are proud and glad to see
+  Their little George can such a prompt
+  And early riser be.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration: Untidy Amanda]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  A naughty child Amanda was;--
+  She would not comb her hair;
+  Though it was rough and tangled, too,
+  Amanda did not care;
+  And when mamma the matted locks
+  Would fain have brushed and tied,
+  Amanda only pushed away
+  Her hand and stamped and cried.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But listen now! It chanced one time
+  Mamma had gone away.
+  Amanda she had left at home
+  All by herself that day.
+  Then someone rattled at the latch;--
+  Amanda heard him there;--
+  She heard him shutting fast the door
+  And creeping up the stair;--
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Someone with scissors in his hand,
+  And dreadful gleaming eyes;
+  "Where is that child who will not comb
+  The tangles out?" he cries.
+  In vain Amanda shrieks and runs,
+  He has her by the hair;
+  Snip-snap! the shining scissors go
+  And leave her head quite bare.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Now when mamma comes home again,
+  Ah, what is her surprise
+  To see Amanda's naked head
+  And note her tearful eyes;
+  And now lest she a cold should catch
+  A nightcap she must wear,
+  And when her locks have grown again
+  I'm sure she'll comb her hair.
+
+
+
+
+THE CHILD WHO WOULD NOT GO TO BED
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "I do not want to go to bed;
+  I will not go!" cried naughty Fred.
+  But it was growing very late;
+  The clock had long ago struck eight,
+  And so mamma, impatient grown,
+  Went off and left him there alone.
+  But hark! Creak, creak! upon the stair;
+  It was the sand-man walking there.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  In through the door he looked, and said,
+  "What! Frederick will not go to bed?"
+  In vain did Frederick kick and bawl,
+  The sand-man would not heed at all;
+  He tumbled Fred into his sack,
+  And off he bore him on his back;
+  Away he went out through the door,
+  On, on for many a mile and more.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  At last the sand-man, weary grown,
+  Sat down to rest upon a stone.
+  Then Frederick turned himself about,
+  And quick he whipped his jack-knife out;
+  Ke--scritchy--scritch! He cuts a slit
+  And softly clambers out of it.
+  And now he runs as quick as thought,
+  And soon a heavy stone has brought;
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  He softly slips it in the sack
+  That hangs upon the sand-man's back.
+  Says clever Fred, "He will not see
+  He has a stone instead of me."
+  And now the sand-man grunts and sighs,
+  And slowly he begins to rise.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And Frederick hears him sigh, "Alack,
+  How that boy thumps about my back!"
+  The stupid sand-man never sees
+  Where Frederick crouches on his knees,
+  Behind the rock, till out of sight
+  The old sand-man has vanished quite.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But Fred, a thankful boy is he,
+  As home he hastens tearfully.
+  And ah his mother! with what joy
+  She welcomes home her little boy.
+  "Ah always after this," cries Fred,
+  "I will be good, and go to bed."
+
+
+
+
+THE BEET
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  "I will not wash my face I say;
+  I will not wash," cried Jane, "to-day."
+  In vain mamma said, "What disgrace!
+  To go with dirty hands and face."
+  Jane only sulked and hung her head,
+  And so she crept away to bed.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Now when the pleasant morning broke
+  In bed the slovenly Jane awoke;
+  She woke but could not turn in bed,
+  Nor stretch herself, nor raise her head;
+  She was a beet with nose and eyes,
+  A beet of most enormous size.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And in the bed the beet leaves green
+  Instead of arms and legs were seen;
+  And then in came mamma and nurse;
+  They did not know her, which was worse,
+  But Jane could hear mamma; she said,
+  "Why, why! how came this beet in bed?"
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And now, by two stout boys, away
+  They send the beet to town next day,
+  That all the people there may see
+  How large a beet can grow to be.
+  They put her in a window there,
+  Where every one can point and stare.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  There the poor sloven sits and cries,
+  Till beet juice oozes from her eyes;
+  But ah! was such sight ever seen?
+  The beet juice tears have washed her clean;
+  And then, the strangest thing of all,
+  As fast and faster still they fall.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  The beet tears melt her back once more
+  Into the child she was before.
+  She does not stay to wipe her eyes,
+  But home with eager feet she hies.
+  "Oh mother, mother dear," cries she,
+  "Henceforth a cleaner child I'll be."
+
+
+
+
+THE ROBBER RAT
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  A kitten once lived all alone
+  In a little yellow house;
+  It lived on crusts of bread and cheese,
+  And now and then a mouse.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  A robber rat lived in a wood--
+  A gloomy wood--close by;
+  He had sharp teeth, and a pointed tail.
+  And a wicked, restless eye.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  To the yellow house the rat would come,
+  And strike the door--knock! knock!
+  The kitten's tail would stand on end,
+  It gave him such a shock.
+
+  Then in the rat would boldly march.
+  "What have you here?" he'd say;
+  And then he would steal the bread and cheese,
+  And carry it all away.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  At last the kitten went to ask
+  Advice of some old cat
+  Who lived close by, and told her all
+  About the robber rat.
+
+  The wise old grey cat scratched her ear;
+  "I'll fix this rat," she said;
+  So she pulled a night-cap over her ears
+  And lay in the kitten's bed.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And now in marched the robber rat;
+  "What!" cried he, "still in bed!
+  Quick, fetch me out what cheese you have,
+  And all your scraps of bread."
+
+  "Spit-t-t!" with her claws and gleaming eyes
+  The cat sprang out of bed.
+  The robber gave one dreadful squeak,
+  And then away he fled.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  The old cat caught him by the tail
+  Just as he reached the door,
+  But snap! it broke, and out he ran,
+  And ne'er was heard of more.
+
+  But for the little kitten,
+  He danced about with glee;
+  "The wicked rat has fled, has fled;
+  Meow, meow!" sang he.
+
+
+
+
+GRANDFATHER STORK
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  A very naughty boy was John;
+  He quarreled with his food,
+  And would not eat his bread and milk,
+  As all good children should.
+  It grieved his kind mamma to see
+  How thin and thinner grew
+  Her little John, in spite of all
+  That she could say or do.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Above the chimney Father Stork
+  Heard all that Johnny said,
+  And how each day he pushed away
+  The bowl of milk and bread.
+  And so it was, when kind mamma
+  Had left the house one day,
+  In through the kitchen door he came
+  And carried John away.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Upon the roof the little storks
+  Live high up in the sky,
+  And far below them in the street
+  They hear the folks go by.
+  The old stork brings them, in his beak,
+  The eels and frogs for food;
+  But these he will not let them have
+  Unless they're very good.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Such things poor Johnny could not eat;
+  And as he sat and cried,
+  He thought of all the bread and milk
+  He used to push aside.
+  "If I were only home again,
+  I would be good," he said,
+  "And never, never turn away
+  From wholesome milk and bread."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  If little John was thin before,
+  Now thinner every day
+  He grew, until you'd think the wind
+  Would carry him away.
+  So, when at last he was so lean
+  His bones seemed poking through,
+  There came a sudden gust of wind,
+  And, puff! away he blew.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And when it blew him to the street,
+  How fast he hurried home!
+  And, oh, how glad his mother was
+  To see her Johnny come!
+  But gladder still she was to find
+  That he had grown so good,
+  And never now would turn away
+  From wholesome simple food.
+
+
+
+
+OLD MOTHER WEBTOES
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "Oh please mamma," said little Jane,
+  "May I go out to play?"
+  "No, no," her mother answered her;
+  "I fear 'twill rain to-day."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "With my umbrella green," said Jane,
+  "I will not mind the wet."
+  But still mamma replied, "No, no;
+  A cold I fear you'd get."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But oh, Jane was a naughty girl!
+  On her own way intent;
+  Soon as mamma had turned away,
+  Out in the street she went.
+  The streets were wet and lonely;
+  No children there at play;
+  Only old Mother Webtoes
+  The frog abroad that day.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Now little Jane she seizes,
+  In spite of all her cries,
+  And green umbrella, Jane and all,
+  Away with her she flies.
+  Far, far off in the river,
+  Upon a moisty stone,
+  Old Webtoes and her children
+  Live in a hut alone;
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And Jane's big green umbrella
+  Old Webtoes hides away;
+  She makes her sweep, she makes her scrub;
+  Jane has no time to play.
+  She spreads a bed of rushes,
+  Where Jane may sleep at night,
+  And wakes her in the morning
+  As soon as it is light.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "Get up," cries Mother Webtoes;
+  "The breakfast you must get."
+  "Oh let me stay in bed," says Jane;
+  "The floor is cold and wet."
+  But Mother Webtoes stamps her foot,
+  And makes the child arise;
+  But as Jane sobs, behind the door,
+  Ah, what is this she spies?
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  It is her green umbrella;
+  She sets it now afloat,
+  And down the river in it sails,
+  As if it were a boat.
+  "Oh Mother Webtoes, only look,"
+  She hears the young frogs scream;
+  "The little girl you brought to us
+  Is sailing down the stream."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But Jane is quite too far away
+  For them to catch her then,
+  And when at last she drifts ashore
+  She sees her home again.
+  She rushes to her mother's arms
+  With sobs and streaming eyes--
+  "Oh mother, mother dear, forgive
+  Your naughty Jane," she cries.
+
+
+
+
+THE RABBIT WITCH
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  Eliza Ann was far from good;
+  She did not act as children should,
+  But fought and quarreled so at play
+  The boys and girls all ran away.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Her mother said, "Take care, my dear,
+  The rabbit witch will come, I fear,
+  And steal you one of these fine days,
+  Unless you learn to mend your ways."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But yet Eliza did not heed;
+  She was a naughty girl indeed.
+  So now the rabbit witch has come,
+  And carries her away from home.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Down in the marshes far away
+  The rabbit's children squeak and play;
+  They tease Eliza till she cries,
+  And with her apron hides her eyes.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  When market day comes round again
+  The witch locks up her house and then
+  She says, "Be careful while you play;--
+  Don't lose this child when I'm away."
+  Now she has gone Eliza takes
+  Her apron and a doll she makes.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "Just see this apron-girl," she cries;--
+  "Look at it's nose and button eyes."
+  And now her frock with belt and fold
+  Into another doll is rolled;
+  She gives it to the rabbit boy,
+  Who squeaks and stamps his foot with joy.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "Now," cry the rabbits, "we will play,
+  For these girls cannot run away."
+  But while they rock their dolls and sing
+  The witch brings home her marketing.
+  "Where are you children dear," she cries.
+  The little rabbit boy replies;--
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "Here with two girls we play, but one
+  Far off, across the fields has run."
+  The rabbit witch went hurrying out
+  To see what they could be about.
+  There no Eliza could she find
+  But only clothes she'd left behind.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Quick after her the old witch ran;--
+  Haste, haste, make haste, Eliza Ann!
+  Her own dear home was reached at last;
+  The door was shut, the latch made fast.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But young Eliza had been taught
+  A lesson as her mother thought:
+  Henceforth she was so sweet and mild
+  All loved to be with such a child.

+PETER AND THE OGRESS
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  These small boys started off for school
+  But loitered by the way,
+  Until at last 'twas quite too late
+  To go to school that day.
+  Ah naughty, naughty, truant boys!
+  But listen what befell!
+  Close by a wicked ogress lived,
+  Down in a lonesome dell.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Now see her coming down the hill!
+  Now see the children run!
+  Her arms are long, her hands are strong,
+  She catches every one.
+  In vain the children kick and scream,
+  The ogress takes them home
+  And locks the door; then off she goes
+  To bid the neighbors come.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But clever Peter sees above
+  The chimney, black and wide;
+  "Quick, wipe your eyes and come," he cries;
+  "I've found a place to hide."
+  And none too soon, for scarce the last
+  Is out of sight before
+  They hear the wicked ogress
+  Come stumping in the door.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Then from the chimney Peter bawls,
+  "We're hiding, stupid face!"
+  "Oh, oh!" the ogress says, "I know;
+  You're up the chimney place."
+  So up the chimney now she looks;
+  "I'll fetch you out," she cries;
+  But puff! the clever Peter blows
+  The soot down in her eyes.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  All filled with black out through the door
+  She hurries, howling still,
+  Just when the other ogresses
+  Are coming up the hill.
+  They stop, they stare, they quake with fear,
+  They stand appalled to see
+  This dreadful, hopping, howling thing
+  As black as black can be.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And now pell-mell away they run;
+  But down the chimney place
+  The boys climb ere the ogress
+  Can clean her sooty face;
+  And when they're safely home again
+  They keep the master's rule,
+  And never, never play again
+  At truant from the school.

+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.

+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf.

+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit:

+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
+
