A LITTLE GIRL IN SCHOOL, by                    
First Line: A little girl in school
Last Line: How merry were the days!
Subject(s): Girls; Happiness; Life; Praise; Time; Joy; Delight


A LITTLE girl in school —
How merry were the days!
So simple every rule,
So easy to earn praise!

Life was a sunlit pool,
The hours were fairy fays;
A little girl in school —
How merry were the days!

Long years of glory? Who'll
Not deem them waifs and strays
Compared with life all cool,
And void of new dismays;
A little girl in school —
How merry were the days!
