In the Moonlight Story
HE picked a buttercup, and held it up to her chin. "Do you like butter?" he
asked.
"Butter!" she exclaimed. "They are not made into butter. They are made into
crowns for the Queen; she has a new one every morning."
"I'll make you a crown," he said. "You shall wear it to-night."
" But where will my throne be ?" she asked.
"It shall be on the middle step of the stile by the corn-field."
So when the moon rose I went out to see.
He wore a red jacket and his cap with the feather in it. Round her head there
was a wreath of buttercups; it was not much like a crown. On one side of the
wreath there were some daisies, and on the other was a little bunch of
blackberry blossom.
"Come and dance in the moonlight," he said ; so she climbed up and over the
stile, and stood in the corn-field holding out her two hands to him. He took
them in his, and then they danced round and round all down the pathway, while
the wheat nodded wisely on either side, and the poppies awoke and wondered. On
they went, on and on through the corn-field towards the broad green meadows
stretching far into the distance. On and on, he shouting for joy, and she
laughing out so merrily that the sound travelled to the edge of the wood, and
the thrushes heard, and dreamed of Spring. On they went, on and on, and round
and round, he in his red jacket, and she with the wild flowers dropping one by
one from her wreath. On and on in the moonlight, on and on till they had
danced all down the corn-field, till they had crossed the green meadows, till
they were hidden in the mist beyond.
That is all I know; but I think that in the far far off somewhere, where the
moon is shining, he and she still dance along a corn-field, he in his red
jacket, and she with the wild flowers dropping from her hair.
