Ah, May, you dear, bright month, have you ever seen a child who is sitting on its mother's knee lis- tening to fairy stories ? As long as the child is told of cruel giants and of the bitter suffering of beautiful princesses, it holds its head up and its eyes open; but if the mother begins to speak of happiness and sunshine, the little one closes its eyes and falls asleep with its head against her breast. And see, fair month of May, such a child am I too.
