## A SONG OF SIX-PENCE.

Sing a song, a brand new song:
“Sing a song of six-pence,
A pock-et full of rye.”
John and Jim-my both picked some,
So they could have a pie.
And when they’d filled their pock-ets full,
[5]Down in the field of rye,
They found some cun-ning lit-tle birds,
To put in-to the pie.
Six pret-ty lit-tle hid-den nests,
Down in the yel-low rye,
Held four-and-twen-ty ba-by birds,
E-nough to fill the pie.
They set them all with-in the dish,
Lined with a crust of rye;
But soon the four-and-twen-ty birds
Cried out in-side the pie.
Then Jim-my turned and looked at John,

[6]

[7]
[8]

And John took up the pie,
And back the lit-tle lad-dies went
In-to the field of rye.
The moth-er bird flew up and shrieked,
“O, have you baked that pie?
How can you bring the cru-el dish,
And eat it in the rye!” John—
And soon they ate the pie;
The birds flew out and found their nests
Down in the yel-low rye.

[9]

## PAYING BACK.

Seven happy little chicks walked out one day in June,
Thought they would enjoy the way by starting up a tune;
Seven ugly little ducks, whose names I will not mention,
Made up their minds to follow them, and spoil their good intention;
Now everybody knows that a duckling’s voice is deep,
And everybody knows that quack will make more noise than peep.

[10]

[11]
[12]

So when they found their music drowned, these plucky little chicks
Made up their minds to cure these ducks of all such naughty tricks;
So they chased them from the barn-yard, on this pleasant day in June,
Then started on their walk again, and went on with their tune.
—J. S.

[13]

## THE GENEROUS CLOVER.

Clover, clover in the field,
Why do you hang your head?
Have you done anything unkind?
Or any cross word said?
O no, my little maiden, no!
I only droop with dew;
And from my lips sweet honey drips;
Come, I will share with you.
—C. C. B.

[14]

## WHERE THEY GROW.

Down in the valley, deep, deep, deep,
Where little sunbeams wink and peep,
Under the grasses hiding low—
There’s where the dear little violets grow.
Out in the meadow, bright, bright, bright,
Close by the clovers red and white—
With heart of gold and a fringe of snow,
[15]There’s where the dear little daisies grow.
Up in the older tree, tree, tree,
Peep, and a tiny nest you’ll see,
Swung by the breezes to and fro—
There’s where the dear little birdlings grow.
Up in the nursery, neat, neat, neat,
Hear the patter of wee, wee feet—
Hear little voices chirp and crow—
There’s where the dear little babies grow!

[16]

## BA-BY FAY FERN-Y.

What is this, with blue
Lit-tle shoes, so new—
Cun-ning lit-tle feet,
Trot-ting down the street,
What will mam-ma say?
Ba-by’s run a-way—
Ba-by Fay Fer-ny.
Calls a boy: “Hal-loo!
[17]See here, lit-tle pop-pet show,
Come with me!” No, no,
Ba-by’s do-in’ do
Ba-by’s own self! Fast
Round the cor-ner passed
Ba-by Fay Fer-ny.
BA-BY FAY FER-NY.

[18]

Stops a great big man
Hur-ry-ing all he can:
“Here! what’s this! My!
Dropped down from the sky?
Some-bod-y’s to blame!
Ba-by, what’s your name?”
“Ba-by Fay Fer-ny.”
“Where you go-ing? say!”
“Day-day.” “What’s that, hey?
See the ba-by fidg-et!
What d’you want, you midg-et.”
“Piece o’but-ter-bed,
Su-gy on it, ’las-ses on it,
Jam on it,” said
[19]Ba-by Fay Fer-ny.
Peo-ple pause to see:
La-dies, one, two, three;
A po-lice-man, too;
But no one that knew
Whence the ba-by came.
“What’s your pa-pa’s name?”
“Pa-pa Fay Fer-ny.”
Comes a breath-less maid:
“O dear! I’m a-fraid
Ba-by’s lost and gone—
Ba-by Fer-gu-son!
No—there down the street!
O, you naugh-ty sweet
Ba-by Fay Fer-ny!”

[20]

## THE DOUGH-DOG.

One day when grandma was making some pies,
She wished to give Tommy a pleasant surprise;
So she made a puppy-dog out of some dough,
And baked it, and marked it, and named it Bruno.
This wonderful dog could stand on its feet,

[21]

BRUNO.
Its body was chubby, and cunning and neat,
Its little dough-head was spotted with black,
And its little dough-tail curled over its back.
[22]And when Tommy saw it he shouted with glee,
“How good grandma was to make that for me!”
And he played with the puppy-dog day after day,
Till its head and its tail were both worn away.
—M. E. N. H.

[23]

## THE LION’S O-PIN-ION OF HIM-SELF.

A li-on gazed down at his shad-ow one day;
Said he, “I look fierce, I de-clare!
No won-der my neigh-bors keep out of my way,
And wish they were birds of the air!

[24]

[25]
[26]

“And I own that real-ly I feel a-fraid
Some-times when I hear my-self roar!”
And he wished as he went and lay down in the shade
That he need be a li-on no more.

[27]

## WHICH IS TALL-EST.

Look! how they meas-ure,
Dai-sy and Rose;
Naught-y Dai-sy will stand
On the tips of her toes!
If I was in her place
I’d try to act fair!
And Rose is the tall-est
For all, I de-clare!

[28]

[29]
[30]

## THE ANX-IOUS DOG-GY.

Take care, lit-tle mas-ter,
Or you’ll fall in!
That wa-ter is up
To your ver-y chin.
Please don’t! please don’t,
My mas-ter dear—
O, I wish your moth-er
[31]Wouldn’t send you here!
For oh! lit-tle mas-ter,
What could I do,
If you should fall in,
But jump in too?

[32]

## NINE LITTLE BIRDIES.

Nine little birdies rocked by the breeze:
First birdie said, “I’m tired of these trees;”
Next birdie said, “Where shall we go?”
Third birdie said, “Where red cherries grow!”
Fourth birdie said, “Are they ripe, do you think?”
[33]Fifth birdie laughed with a rogue’s own wink;
Sixth birdie said, “I’m sure that they are;”
Seventh birdie said, “Is it very far?”
Eighth birdie said, “Who’ll leader be?”
Ninth birdie said, “I’m off, follow me!”
Whew! Whew!
And away they all flew
Into Mr. John Lee’s
Choice cherry trees!

[34]

## WHAT BA-BY DID.

What do you think the ba-by did?
Why, Ba-by did as he was bid!
The dar-ling took a pen, and wrote—
A lit-tle in-vi-ta-tion note,
To all the aunts, and grand-mam-ma,
[35]To un-cles all, and grand-pa-pa,
To all the ba-by kin ar-ray,
To come to din-ner Christ-mas Day.
HE WRITES IT.

[36]

He wrote it ver-y black and plain,
Criss-crossed and marked it all a-gain;
HE MAILS IT.

[37]

And though he had not had his nap
He next was seen in cloak and cap,
And go-ing up the crowd-ed street,
Safe in his hand the mis-sive sweet,
To drop it in the box him-self,
The aw-ful lit-tle dar-ling elf!

[38]

## TWO KIND LIT-TLE GIRLS.

Whith-er a-way,
Lit-tle la-dies so gay?
“O, o-ver the hill
To Grand-moth-er Dill!”
And what have you there
In your bas-ket square?
“O, pud-dings and pies,
A lit-tle sur-prise!”
Why such good-will
[39]To Grand-moth-er Dill?
“O, ev-er-y one should
On Christ-mas do good!”
Lit-tle maids, good day!
Flow-ers strew your way!

[40]

## AN APRIL RAIN.

You poor little birds,
It’s happened again—
In the midst of your play
Down patters the rain.
You were caught in a shower
Just so last week,
And I thought that morning
I ought to speak;
I hear you all up
[41]A-singing at dawn,
I know you have tried
Each tree on the lawn,
Yet not one of you all
Have picked up a straw—
Such improvident birds
I ne’er before saw.
But I hope you see now
That it would be best
To let your play go
And build you a nest.

[42]

## WHAT THE GRASSES SAID.

Who can hear the grass talk?
Very few, I know;
Yet it whispers every day,
Sweet and soft and low.
And one day I heard it;
Shall I tell you when?
I lay on the grass to read,
And I heard it then.
Everything was pleasant;
[43]Bright the sun did shine;
Dew lay in the flowers’ eyes,
Heavy sleep in mine;
So I gently shut them;
Soon they opened wide;
For I heard the grasses talk
Fast on every side!
This is what they talked about:
“Oh, what pleasant weather!
Lift your heads up to the sun,
Nod and wave together!
“We’re so glad that we are grass,
Cool and soft and green;
Oh, how sad the earth would look
If no grass were seen!

[44]

[45]
[46]

“And we love the summer warm,
But, oh, dear! oh, dear!
What will little grasses do
When winter cold is here?
“How the wind will whistle
Round about our heads!
Oh it’s very hard to have
No covers on our beds!”
Then the wise red-rose bush
Tall, and rough and old,
Shook his head, and kindly said,
“You will not be cold,
“For God sends a blanket warm
[47]For every blade of grass,
Soft and light, and white as wool;
Not a blade He’ll pass!”
“What’s the blanket made of?
Quick! we want to know!”
“Why, my dears,” the rose-bush said,
“God’s blanket is the snow.”
J. S.

[48]

## TAB-BY’S LULL-A-BY.

Wash-wash-you-cat,
Now this side, now that!
Wash-wash-you-cat,
Keep clean and grow fat!
Four lit-tle ears,
And eight lit-tle paws,
Two small nos-es,
[49]And for-ty sharp claws,
Give moth-er’s tongue
A great deal to do.
So hush! keep still,
And I’ll sing to you:
Purr-r! purr-r!
In a sil-ver house,
Moth-er once saw
A lit-tle white mouse,
Soft white fur,
And lit-tle pink eyes,
So round and plump,
And so ver-y wise.
Wash-wash-you-cat,
Now hold up your chin.

[50]

[51]
[52]

Me-ow! don’t you scratch—
To scratch is a sin.
Me-ow! Me-ow!
You bad lit-tle cat,
You mustn’t bite;
Moth-er won’t stand that!
Purr-r! purr-r!
Now shut up your eyes;
Moth-er will make
You some cat-nip pies.
Purr-r! purr-r!
Lit-tle balls of fur,
Purr-r! purr-r!
[53]Lie still, and don’t stir.
Wash-wash-you-cat,
Lit-tle balls of fur!
Wash-wash-you-cat,
Purr-r! purr-r!

[54]

## SOME NAUGHTY I’S.

“I, I, I,”
Some little people cry:
“I won’t, I can’t,
I shall, I shan’t—”
Oh, what a naughty I;
“I, I, I,”
Now hear them passing by:
“I han’t, I be,
I are, I see—”
Oh, what a naughty I.

[55]

## AT BREAK-FAST.

A gay lit-tle bird
That want-ed some fun
Flew in and light-ed
On the ba-by’s bun.
He pecked at a cur-rant,
He sipped from the cup,
Then hopped on the loaf,
[56]And thus piped up:
“Peep-sy weeps! Ba-by, say,
What’ll you give if I will stay?
Peep-sy weeps! Ba-by, O,
What’ll you give if I will go?”
AN AS-TON-ISHED BA-BY.
He splashed the milk,
[57]He nib-bled the bread,
He spread both wings,
He stood on his head.
But still the ba-by
Said nev-er a word—
And out of the win-dow
Flashed the bird!
“Peep-sy weeps!” loud sang he,
“Such a stu-pid ba-by I nev-er did see!
Nev-er a smile, nev-er a word—
Peep-sy weeps! I’m glad I’m a bird!”

[58]

## BA-BY DIM-PLE AT BREAK-FAST.

She sits in the porch with her sau-cer;
Smeared are her fin-gers and thumbs;
While a-round with nois-y clat-ter
[59]Old hen, with her chick-ens comes.
Ba-by shoos and shoos, and strikes them
With the spoon that spills the crumbs:
“Do ’way chick-ies! ’ou s’an’t hab em—
My nice bwead an’ las-ses tums!”
But the chick-ies sly will pick them
When Miss Dim-ple’s not on the watch;
And old moth-er hen comes bold-ly

[60]

[61]
[62]

With her mind made up for a snatch.
Take care, Mrs. Hen-ny-pen-ny!
One good rap is what you catch,
With Miss Dim-ple’s sharp ad-vise-ment:
“’Ou la-zy ol’ fing—go scwatch!”

[63]

## NOBODY KNOWS.

How the wind whistles and roars!
How he blows, he blows, and he blows!
But what does he say at the doors?
Nobody knows, nobody knows.
The ground is covered with white,
For it snows, it snows, and it snows;
But it falls so silent at night
That nobody knows, nobody knows.
The grass is springing again,
[64]And it grows, it grows, and it grows,
In the sunshine and the rain—
How, nobody knows, nobody knows.
Hear the black cock flap his wings!
And he crows, he crows, and he crows;
But whether he laughs or he sings,
Why, nobody knows, nobody knows.
The brook runs sparkling along,
And it flows, it flows, and it flows;
But what is its rippling song,
Why, nobody knows, nobody knows.
The cow comes down through the lane,
And she lows, she lows, and she lows;
But what she says it is plain
[65]That nobody knows, nobody knows.
Over the fields and away
Fly the crows, the crows, the crows;
They caw, they caw, but they say
What nobody knows, nobody knows.
—E. B.

[66]

## THE LOST CHICKENS.

“Cluck, cluck! cluck, cluck!” called the mother-hen,
“Some harm has come to my chickens, I fear;
I counted this morning, and then there were ten;
Now four are gone, and but six are here.”

[67]

“ALL SAFE AND SOUND.”
“Peep, peep! peep, peep!” four chickens replied,
As they sipped the dew from a burdock leaf;
[68]“We must hurry back to our mother’s side,
She is calling us now with a voice of grief.”
Then away to her side they ran again,
Leaving the dainty drink they had found;
“Cluck, cluck! cluck, cluck!” said the mother-hen,
“Here are my ten, all safe and sound.”
—M. E. N. H.

[69]

## LIKE BABY.

I’m going to make a dolly,
Just like the baby there;
I’m going to take some sunshine
And twist it up for hair.
I’m going to take the bluest speck
In all the great blue skies,
And make a bright blue pretty pair
Of little winking eyes.
I’m going to take some roses,
[70]The sweetest, brightest pink,
To make her little darling cheeks,
The very thing, I think!
But, oh dear me! I surely am
Forgetting all the while,
I cannot find a single thing
To make baby’s smile.

[71]

## HOW THE BABY WAS NAMED.

Mother’s busy washing;
Jack has gone to school;
Baby’s in the garden;
Kitty has a spool.
Every one is busy
This bright summer day,
None more so than Baby,
Working hard to play.

[72]

[73]
[74]

Hat stuck full of daisies,
Dolls are daisy-crowned—
Daisies, daisies everywhere
Lying on the ground.
Out comes little pussy
Tossing them about;
Baby calls, “Go way now!”
With a little pout.
Summer sun grows warmer;
Baby tires with play;
Down upon the green grass
Fast asleep she lay;
Daisies all about her,
Sunshine overhead,
Pussy nestled closely
[75]In this summer bed.
Mother from her washing
Comes, and finds her there
With the wide-eyed daisies
Nestling in her hair.
Then was Baby christened
In the summer sweet;
Now, no longer “Baby,”
But sweet Marguerite.

[76]

## THE WINDOW-PANE TREE.

With her warm little finger,
Gold Locks wrote
On the icy window-pane
A note.
“Make me a Christmas-tree,”
It read;
It was signed with a flourish,
“Yours, Gold Head.”
Then out came the sunlight’s
[77]Sparkling ray;
It melted the message
All away.
But the very next morning,
Lo! behold!
On the glass of the window,
White and cold,
Was a tapering fir-tree,
Weighed with snow,
Spire-like at the top,
And broad below.
Cried out little Gold Locks,
“See, oh, see!
Jack Frost has painted
My Christmas-tree!”

[78]

[79]
[80]

## BIRDS IN WINTER.

Come now, little birds,
You must stop in your play,
The snow’s coming down,
You must hide you away.
You must huddle together
And keep yourselves warm,
In snug nooks and corners
Shut out from the storm.

[81]

Be patient and wait,
The clouds will go by,
And sunshine once more
Will brighten the sky.
In the woods and the fields
Where summer-plants grew,
The buds and the seeds
Are stored up for you.
You can seek them for food
When the weather is fair,
And chirp your sweet songs
In the clear pleasant air.

[82]

## THREE TRAVELLERS.

Three funny little travellers
Set out to leave the town;
And all they wore to keep them warm
Was one white, ruffled gown.
I asked these little travellers
If far they meant to roam.
“Oh, no,” they all together said;
“We’ll not go far from home.”
The first brave one who started out
[83]Was our sweet Baby May;
She said, “I’m going to By-lo-Land,”
In such a sleepy way.
The second one, in gown of white,
Was Alice, six years old;
She said, “I go to Shutty-eye-town,”
And on she went, both fast and bold.
And Lottie, eldest one of all,
Said, “On this road I plod,
To 76, Old Blanket street,
Bedfordshire, the Land of Nod.”
I wondered where these towns could be,
When mamma softly said,
“Good night, good night, my children dear!
Now hurry off to bed!
—J. S.

[84]

## A TALE OF A BOT-TLE.

A bot-tle of ink on the ta-ble,
A lit-tle girl on the floor—
And now I don’t think I’ll be a-ble
To tell you an-y-thing more.
The lit-tle girl up to the ta-ble,
[85]Mam-ma look-ing in at the door—
And now I don’t think I’ll be a-ble
To tell you an-y-thing more.
The lit-tle girl runs from the ta-ble,
Bot-tle rolls down to the floor—
And now I don’t think I’ll be a-ble
To tell you an-y-thing more.
Then mam-ma runs up to the ta-ble,
[86]Lit-tle girl runs for the door—
And now I don’t think I’ll be a-ble
To tell you an-y-thing more.
A ROGUE.

[87]

Mam-ma runs a-way from the ta-ble,
And catch-es the girl at the door—
And now, oh! I know I’m not a-ble
To tell you an-y-thing more.

[88]

## A WONDERFUL SCHOLAR.

O, a wonderful scholar
Is our little Kate!
She reads in a primer;
She writes on a slate;
Her lines are not even;
Her O’s are not round;
And her words in the reader
[89]Could not be found.
Her sewing—what puckers!
What stitches! what knots!
And along the whole hem,
There are tiny red spots.
Her weekly reports
Tell how oft she has spoken;
And there’s not a rule
That she never has broken.
Yet she comes to mamma
[90]For a smile and a kiss,
As if a “bad mark,”
Should be paid for by this.
And she cries in delight,
While she swings round her hat:
“I’m a wonderful scholar,
For I can spell ‘cat!’
C-A-T, Cat!”
—K. L.

[91]

## OUT IN THE MEADOW.

What do you think I saw to-day
Out in the meadow bright,
It tripped along on four little feet
In a coat all woolly and white;
I said “Good morning, you pretty thing!”
And it raised its gentle head
As if it wanted to chat awhile;
But, “Baa-Baa,” was all it said!
What do you think I led with me,
[92]Blue eyed, dimpled, and sweet?
It hardly bent the daisies down
With two little toddling feet;
She laughed and chattered at Woolly-back,
She patted his little head;
But he talked almost as well as she,
For “ma-ma” was all she said!

Transcriber’s Notes:

April Rain, “thelawn” changed to “the lawn” (tree on the lawn)

Tab-by’s Lull-a-by, after comparing text to original poem in “Babyland,” the word “A” was added to start of line of poetry (A great deal to do)

Some Naughty I’s, “NAUGHY” changed to “NAUGHTY” in poem’s title.

    paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project
    Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this
    agreement and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm
    electronic works. See paragraph 1.E below.

    1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the
    Foundation" or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection
    of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual
    works in the collection are in the public domain in the United
    States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the
    United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
    claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
    displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
    all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope
    that you will support the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting
    free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm
    works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
    Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with the work. You can easily
    comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the
    same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg-tm License when
    you share it without charge with others.

    1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
    what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are
    in a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States,
    check the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this
    agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing,
    distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any
    other Project Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no
    representations concerning the copyright status of any work in any
    country outside the United States.

    1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:

    1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other
    immediate access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear
    prominently whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work
    on which the phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the
    phrase "Project Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed,
    performed, viewed, copied or distributed:

      This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and
      most other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no
      restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or re-use it
      under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included with this
      eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org. If you are not located in the
      United States, you'll have to check the laws of the country where you
      are located before using this ebook.

    1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is
    derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not
    contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the
    copyright holder), the work can be copied and distributed to anyone in
    the United States without paying any fees or charges. If you are
    redistributing or providing access to a work with the phrase "Project
    Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the work, you must comply
    either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 or
    obtain permission for the use of the work and the Project Gutenberg-tm
    trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.

    1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
    with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
    must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any
    additional terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms
    will be linked to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works
    posted with the permission of the copyright holder found at the
    beginning of this work.

    1.E.4. Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
    License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
    work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.

    1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
    electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
    prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
    active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
    Gutenberg-tm License.

    1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
    compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including
    any word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access
    to or distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format
    other than "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official
    version posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site
    (www.gutenberg.org), you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense
    to the user, provide a copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means
    of obtaining a copy upon request, of the work in its original "Plain
    Vanilla ASCII" or other form. Any alternate format must include the
    full Project Gutenberg-tm License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.

    1.E.7. Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
    performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works

    access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
    provided that

    * You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
      the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
      you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is owed
      to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he has
      agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project
      Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid
      within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are
      legally required to prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty
      payments should be clearly marked as such and sent to the Project
      Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in
      Section 4, "Information about donations to the Project Gutenberg
      Literary Archive Foundation."

    * You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
      you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
      does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
      License. You must require such a user to return or destroy all
      copies of the works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue
      all use of and all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg-tm
      works.

    * You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of
      any money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
      electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days of
      receipt of the work.

    * You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
      distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.

    1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project
    Gutenberg-tm electronic work or group of works on different terms than
    are set forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing
    from both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and The
    Project Gutenberg Trademark LLC, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm
    trademark. Contact the Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.

    1.F.

    1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
    effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
    works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
    Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm
    electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
    contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
    or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
    intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
    other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
    cannot be read by your equipment.

    1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
    of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
    Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
    Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
    Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
    liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
    fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
    LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
    PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
    TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
    LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
    INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
    DAMAGE.

    1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
    defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
    receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
    written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
    received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
    with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
    with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
    lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
    or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
    opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If
    the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing
    without further opportunities to fix the problem.

    1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
    in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS', WITH NO
    OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT
    LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

    1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
    warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
    damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
    violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the
    agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or
    limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or
    unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the
    remaining provisions.

    1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
    trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
    providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in
    accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the
    production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm
    electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses,
    including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of
    the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
    or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
    additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
    Defect you cause.

    Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm

    Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
    electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
    computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
    exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
    from people in all walks of life.

    Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
    assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
    goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
    remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
    Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
    and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
    generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
    Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
    Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
    www.gutenberg.org

    Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

    501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
    state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal

    Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
    Literary Archive Foundation

    Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
    spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
    increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
    freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
    array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
    ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
    status with the IRS.

    The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
    charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
    States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
    considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
    with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
    where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
    DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
    state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate

    While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
    have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
    against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
    approach us with offers to donate.

    International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
    any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
    outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

    Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
    methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
    ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
    donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

    Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.

    Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
    Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
    freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
    distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
    volunteer support.

    Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
    editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
    the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
    necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
    edition.

    Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
    facility: www.gutenberg.org

    This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
    including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
    Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
    subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
