I.
Here comes Queen Mab in her coach-and-six!Look out for mischievous fairy tricks!
Look out, good girls! Look out, brave boys!
I know she comes to bewitch your toys!
Hither she floats, like the down of a thistle!—
So mind the peg-top; and mind the hoop;
Bring down the kite with a sudden swoop;
Hide the pop-gun; and plug up the whistle;
But don't say Dolly's a-bed with the croup:
For, if you tell her a fib, my dear,
She'll fasten the door-key to your ear!
