Jack had wakened and toddled into the room on his sleepy little legs. The child staggered over to his mother and laid his head against her arm, murmuring sleepily: "Love oo too!"

This was his song. Love, the baby, Toddled out to pluck a flower; One said, "No, sir;" one said, "Maybe, At the evening hour!"

"Over Fell, there," said Tom, and pointed up into the sky.
