Nanny’s Search

O Nanny, my dear little Nanny! and where have you been to-day?

Y our little coat’s old, and the wind blows cold, and where have you been, I pray?”

“Dear Granny, I’ve been to the forest to look for a Christmas-tree—

Santa Claus is so kind, I thought I would find one growing there wild, maybe,

Full of cakes, with a doll, and candy, and all for a wee little body like me.”
