    I woke before the morning, I was happy all the day, I never said an ugly word, but smiled and stuck to play. And now at last the sun is going down behind the wood, And I am very happy, for I know that I've been good. My bed is waiting cool and fresh, with linen smooth and fair, And I must be off to sleeping-by, and not forget my prayer.

But slumber hold me tightly till I wake in the dawn, And hear the thrushes singing in the lilacs round the lawn.
