Mary's heart beat violently as her companion, drawing her arm from his, presented her to his sovereign, who graciously bade her speak her wishes without fear. Re-assured by the kindness of the king's manner, almost forgetting the presence in which she stood, for what seemed to her the greater importance of her errand, she made her petition gracefully and well.

You shall twirl round and round, like a brisk wind-mill sail, You poor little simpleton, after your tail ; And jump in affright from a shade on the wall ; And spring like a tiger on nothing at all — While my father will lay his old book on his knee And my mother look up from her knitting to see.
