GRANDMAMMA’S STORY.
Reading edition
Oh, tell some tales of ancient times, Dear grandmamma, again; When you was young as we are now, Said little Mary Jane. She raised her mild blue eyes, and said, I have a tale to tell, Which once I read, when I was young, And now remember well. My mother bought the book for me, And brought it home one day, When I had been a naughty girl, And passionate at play. Although the tale was very sad, I tell it now, that you May see what very wicked things, An angry child may do.
