		ACROSTICS: LITTLE MAIDENS, WHEN YOU LOOK                                    
                                                                          
                    LITTLE maidens, when you look                           
                    On this little story-book,                              
                    Reading with attentive eye                              
                    Its enticing history,                                   
                    Never think that hours of play                          
                    Are your only HOLIDAY,                                  
                    And that in a HOUSE of joy                              
                    Lessons serve but to annoy:                             
                    If in any HOUSE you find                                
                    Children of a gentle mind,                              
                    Each the others pleasing ever-                          
                    Each the others vexing never-                           
                    Daily work and pastime daily                            
                    In their order taking gaily-                            
                    Then be very sure that they                             
                    Have a life of HOLIDAY.
