SING-SONG; A NURSERY RHYME BOOK: 71 by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

First Line: IN THE MEADOW - WHAT IN THE MEADOW?
Last Line: IN THE GARDEN.
IN the meadow -- what in the meadow?
Bluebells, buttercups, meadowsweet,
And fairy rings for the children's feet
In the meadow.

In the garden -- what in the garden?
Jacob's-ladder and Solomon's-seal,
And Love-lies-bleeding beside All heal
In the garden.
