Excerpt from Notes and Queries, Vol. 2: A Medium of Intercommunication for Literary Men, General Readers, Etc;; Ninth Series; July December, 1898

I know where there is honey in a jar, Meet for a certain little friend of mine And, Dorothy, I know where daisies are That only wait small hands to intertwine A wreath for such a golden head as thine.

The thought that thou art coming makes all lad The house is bright with blossoms high an low, And many a little lass and lad Expectantly are running to and fro The fire within our hearts is all aglow.

We want thee, child, to share in our delight On this high day, the holiest and best, Because 'twas then, ere youth had taken ﬂight, Thy grandmamma, Of women loveliest, Made me of men most honoured and most blest.
