LAUGHING WITH SUNLIGHT. 



MEI/ODIC SECOND 



Now laughing with sunlight the heavens are blue, 

 The fields with gay flowers are bursting anew ; 

 With verdure and blossoms the orchard grows fair, 

 And larks with sweet music are filling the air 

 And larks with sweet music are filling the air. 



We play in the meadow and hear the birds sing, 

 We see on the hilltop the gladness of Spring; 

 All nature is beaming with rapture and love, 

 And sunlight comes smiling down from above 

 And sunlight comes smiling down from above. 



THE OWL AND THE PUSSY CAT. 



SHEET Music. 



The Owl and the Pussy Cat went to sea 



In a beautiful pea green boat ; 

 They took some honey and plenty of money 



Wrapped up in a five-pound note. 

 The Owl looked up to the stars above, 



And sang to his small guitar, 

 "Oh, lovely Pussy, Oh, Pussy, my love, 



What a wonderful Pussy you are." 



Pussy said to the Owl, "You elegant fowl, 



How charmingly sweet you sing, 

 Oh, let us be married, too long we have tarried, 



But what shall we do for a ring?" 

 So they sailed away, for a year and a day, 



To the land where the Bong tree grows, 

 And there in a wood, a Piggy-wig stood, 



With a ring at the end of his nose. 



"Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for a shilling 



Your ring?" Said the Piggy, "I will." 

 So they took it away and were married next day 



By the turkey who lives on the hill. 

 They dined on mince, and on slices of quince 



Which they ate with a runcible spoon, 

 And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand 



They danced by the light of the moon.
