      THE

      NURSERY

      A Monthly Magazine

      For Youngest Readers.

      VOLUME XXX.—No. 5.

      BOSTON:

      THE NURSERY PUBLISHING COMPANY,

      No. 36 Bromfield Street.

      1881.

      Entered according to act of Congress, in the year 1881, by

      THE NURSERY PUBLISHING COMPANY,

      In the Office of the Librarian of Congress at Washington.

      HUSH-A-BY.

      VOL. XXX.—NO. 5.

      HUSH-A-BY.

      Hush-a-by baby: as the birds fly,

      We are off to the island of Lullaby:

      I am the captain, and you are the crew,

      And the cradle, I guess, is our birch-bark canoe;

      We'll drift away from this work-day shore,

      Forty thousand long leagues or more,

      Till we reach the strand where happy dreams wait,

      Whether we're early, or whether we're late.

      Hush-a-by baby: as the birds fly,

      Let us make the snug harbor of Lullaby:

      Some little folks are far on the way;

      Some have put in at Wide-awake Bay;

      Others, I fear, are long overdue;

      Don't let this happen, my darling, to you:

      Let us steer for the coast where happy dreams wait,

      Whether we're early, or whether we're late.
