 is a story about Belinda, and, as it is the last, I think I shall tell it you in poetry. Belinda is the one in mauve, and I could have written much better poetry if she had been in brown or blue, but Mothers never think of things like this when they dress their children. However, she has a little red on her cap, which may be useful. We shall see.

Belinda Brown was six or so, Belinda had a grown-up spade, Belinda Brown was six, and oh! The castle that Belinda made!

That's the first verse; and now, if anybody asks you what her name was, you can answer at once "Belinda, because it says so in one of the lines."

Belinda Brown was six or so, Although she looked a little more, But she was only six, and oh! The bonny cap Belinda wore!
