First Line: NANCY HANKS DREAMS BY THE FIRE Last Line: TIME NOW FOR A TALL MAN TO COME. Subject(s): HANKS, NANCY (1783-1818);
NANCY HANKS dreams by the fire; Dreams, and the logs sputter, And the yellow tongues climb. Red lines lick their way in flickers. Oh, sputter, logs. Oh, dream, Nancy. Time now for a beautiful child. Time now for a tall man to come.
