Grave Alice, and laughing Allegra, and Edith with golden hair

Hi! It's Found.

In case any of you don't get the reference, Alice, Allegra, and Edith are from a poem called the Children's Hour. I'm including a few stanzas of it...

Between the dark and the daylight,
When the night is beginning to lower,
Comes a pause in the day's occupations,
That is known as the Children's Hour.

I hear in the chamber above me
The patter of little feet,
The sound of a door that is opened,
And voices soft and sweet.

From my study I see in the lamplight,
Descending the broad hall stair,
Grave Alice, and laughing Allegra,
And Edith with golden hair.

It's a lot longer than that, but I don't think it would all fit very well, and it would make for a really long post. If you want more, look it up.

Anyway, my sister was doing this poem for school this year, so she's always saying it. Actually, I think at some point, ALL my siblings learned it. So it's not really a surprise that I know most of it.  

I found it kind of cool that they gave these random discriptions of the girls, like, the three things that summed them up. I also found it funny that while two of the discriptions were like attitudes, (Grave, laughing.) the third was the fact that Edith has golden hair.
