SING-SONG; A NURSERY RHYME BOOK: 99 by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

First Line: ALL THE BELLS WERE RINGING
Last Line: AND ALL THE BIRDS ARE SINGING.

ALL the bells were ringing
And all the birds were singing,
When Molly sat down crying
For her broken doll:
O you silly Moll!
Sobbing and sighing
For a broken doll,
When all the bells are ringing
And all the birds are singing.
