"MY BIRTHDAY"
(Original.) I had t birthday yesterday, And I was ten years old; I had a little party gay, With paper hats of gold. When In the morning I awoke, A. gift awaited me. 'Twas six o'clock, and no one spoke,' And no one there to see.
It was a book of fairy-tales— Of knights and ladies fair— Of big white ships with many sails That now-a-days aro rare. I then walked in the dewy air ' And in the garden sat, And In a box beside me there, I found a Persian cat. To my delight, it was for me! A card was tied to him— "Happy Returns to Marjorle. With love from Uncle Jim." "QUEEN OF THE SNOW" (12). Ktfburn.
