LULLABY SONG.
The wind is whispering iQ. the trees, So softly whisp’ring, dear. The little birds are trilling soft, Their good nights lisping, dear.
The dew is falling gently round us, So gently falling, dear. I hear the distant magpie cry, —His mate a-calling, dear.
Like fairy cloaks the shadows fall, So quietly falling, dear, And night, the time for rest has come; The time for dreaming dreams, small
dear. (1 Mark and a Merit Card awarded to “Guide Mary,”—Mary McLay, Ruapuna, aged 16.)
