The Eyebright Fairy
Fata dell’eufrasia
Cicely Mary Barker
La fata fu accompagnata da una canzone, realizzata anch’essa dalla Barker:
The Song of The Eyebright Fairy
Eyebright for letter E:
Where shall we look for him?
Bright eyes we’ll need to see
Someone so small as he.
Where is the nook for him?
Look on the hillside bare,
Nibbled by bunnies;
Harebells and thyme are there,
All in the open air
Where the great sun is.
There in the turf is he,
(No sheltered nook for him!)
Eyebright for letter E,
Saying, “Please, this is me!”
That’s where to look for him.
