Beatrix Potter,
Cecily Parsley's Nursery Rhymes
“ Though flattered by imitators galore Miss Potter's work stands supreme. Her many picture stories should be among the first books owned by children. Cecily Parsley lived in a pen, And brewed good ale for gentlemen; Gentlemen came every day, Till Cecily Parsley ran away. ”
Beatrix Potter,
Cecily Parsley's Nursery Rhymes
“ Says “Pussy! are you there?” “How do you do, Mistress Pussy? Mistress Pussy, how do you do?” “I thank you kindly, little dog, I fare as well as you!” Three blind mice, three blind mice, See how they run! ”
