PREFACE.

In the present edition of the "Nursery Songs," which has been
carefully revised, the original name given by its parent and best
friends is restored.

Two captivating little songs, by some unknown hand, appended to the
English edition, are retained; and two or three from the first
American edition, omitted in the English, are restored.

I will hope that the little folks will welcome the little book in
its new dress, and make much of it; for it was at first made, and is
now adorned with pictures, on purpose to please them.

ELIZA LEE FOLLEN.
