-A SONG OF SIX-PENCE.
-
-
-    Sing a song, a brand new song:
-    “Sing a song of six-pence,
-      A pock-et full of rye.”
-    John and Jim-my both picked some,
-      So they could have a pie.
-
-    And when they’d filled their pock-ets full,
-      Down in the field of rye,
-    They found some cun-ning lit-tle birds,
-      To put in-to the pie.
-    Six pret-ty lit-tle hid-den nests,
-      Down in the yel-low rye,
-    Held four-and-twen-ty ba-by birds,
-      E-nough to fill the pie.
-
-    They set them all with-in the dish,
-      Lined with a crust of rye;
-    But soon the four-and-twen-ty birds
-      Cried out in-side the pie.
-
-    Then Jim-my turned and looked at John,
-
-[Illustration]
-
-      And John took up the pie,
-    And back the lit-tle lad-dies went
-      In-to the field of rye.
-
-    The moth-er bird flew up and shrieked,
-      “O, have you baked that pie?
-    How can you bring the cru-el dish,
-      And eat it in the rye!” John--
-
-      And soon they ate the pie;
-    The birds flew out and found their nests
-      Down in the yel-low rye.

-PAYING BACK.
-
-
-    Seven happy little chicks walked out one day in June,
-    Thought they would enjoy the way by starting up a tune;
-    Seven ugly little ducks, whose names I will not mention,
-    Made up their minds to follow them, and spoil their good
-          intention;
-    Now everybody knows that a duckling’s voice is deep,
-    And everybody knows that _quack_ will make more noise than
-          _peep_.
-
-[Illustration]
-
-    So when they found their music drowned, these plucky little chicks
-    Made up _their_ minds to cure these ducks of all such naughty
-          tricks;
-    So they chased them from the barn-yard, on this pleasant day in
-          June,
-    Then started on their walk again, and went on with their tune.
-                                                            --_J. S._

-THE GENEROUS CLOVER.
-
-
-    Clover, clover in the field,
-      Why do you hang your head?
-    Have you done anything unkind?
-      Or any cross word said?
-
-    O no, my little maiden, no!
-      I only droop with dew;
-    And from my lips sweet honey drips;
-      Come, I will share with you.
-                              --_C. C. B._

-WHERE THEY GROW.
-
-
-    Down in the valley, deep, deep, deep,
-    Where little sunbeams wink and peep,
-    Under the grasses hiding low--
-    There’s where the dear little violets grow.
-
-    Out in the meadow, bright, bright, bright,
-    Close by the clovers red and white--
-    With heart of gold and a fringe of snow,
-    There’s where the dear little daisies grow.
-
-    Up in the older tree, tree, tree,
-    Peep, and a tiny nest you’ll see,
-    Swung by the breezes to and fro--
-    There’s where the dear little birdlings grow.
-
-    Up in the nursery, neat, neat, neat,
-    Hear the patter of wee, wee feet--
-    Hear little voices chirp and crow--
-    There’s where the dear little babies grow!

-BA-BY FAY FERN-Y.
-
-
-    What is this, with blue
-    Lit-tle shoes, so new--
-    Cun-ning lit-tle feet,
-    Trot-ting down the street,
-    What will mam-ma say?
-    Ba-by’s run a-way--
-        Ba-by Fay Fer-ny.
-
-    Calls a boy: “Hal-loo!
-    See here, lit-tle pop-pet show,
-    Come with me!” No, no,
-    Ba-by’s do-in’ do
-    Ba-by’s own self! Fast
-    Round the cor-ner passed
-        Ba-by Fay Fer-ny.
-
-[Illustration: BA-BY FAY FER-NY.]
-
-    Stops a great big man
-    Hur-ry-ing all he can:
-    “Here! what’s this! My!
-    Dropped down from the sky?
-    Some-bod-y’s to blame!
-    Ba-by, what’s your name?”
-        “Ba-by Fay Fer-ny.”
-
-    “Where you go-ing? say!”
-    “Day-day.” “What’s that, hey?
-    See the ba-by fidg-et!
-    What d’you want, you midg-et.”
-    “Piece o’but-ter-bed,
-    Su-gy on it, ’las-ses on it,
-    Jam on it,” said
-        Ba-by Fay Fer-ny.
-
-    Peo-ple pause to see:
-    La-dies, one, two, three;
-    A po-lice-man, too;
-    But no one that knew
-    Whence the ba-by came.
-    “What’s your pa-pa’s name?”
-        “Pa-pa Fay Fer-ny.”
-
-    Comes a breath-less maid:
-    “O dear! I’m a-fraid
-    Ba-by’s lost and gone--
-    Ba-by Fer-gu-son!
-    No--there down the street!
-    O, you naugh-ty sweet
-        Ba-by Fay Fer-ny!”

-THE DOUGH-DOG.
-
-
-    One day when grandma was making some pies,
-    She wished to give Tommy a pleasant surprise;
-    So she made a puppy-dog out of some dough,
-    And baked it, and marked it, and named it Bruno.
-    This wonderful dog could stand on its feet,
-
-[Illustration: BRUNO.]
-
-    Its body was chubby, and cunning and neat,
-    Its little dough-head was spotted with black,
-    And its little dough-tail curled over its back.
-    And when Tommy saw it he shouted with glee,
-    “How good grandma was to make that for me!”
-    And he played with the puppy-dog day after day,
-    Till its head and its tail were both worn away.

-THE LION’S O-PIN-ION OF HIM-SELF.
-
-
-    A li-on gazed down at his shad-ow one day;
-    Said he, “I look fierce, I de-clare!
-    No won-der my neigh-bors keep out of my way,
-    And wish they were birds of the air!
-
-[Illustration]
-
-    “And I own that real-ly I feel a-fraid
-    Some-times when I hear my-self roar!”
-    And he wished as he went and lay down in the shade
-    That he need be a li-on no more.
-
-
-
-
-WHICH IS TALL-EST.
-
-
-    Look! how they meas-ure,
-      Dai-sy and Rose;
-    Naught-y Dai-sy _will_ stand
-      On the tips of her toes!
-
-    If I was in her place
-      I’d try to act fair!
-    And Rose _is_ the tall-est
-      For all, I de-clare!

-THE ANX-IOUS DOG-GY.
-
-
-    Take care, lit-tle mas-ter,
-      Or you’ll fall in!
-    That wa-ter is up
-      To your ver-y chin.
-
-    Please don’t! please don’t,
-      My mas-ter dear--
-    O, I wish your moth-er
-      Wouldn’t send you here!
-
-    For oh! lit-tle mas-ter,
-      What could I do,
-    If you should fall in,
-      But jump in too?

-NINE LITTLE BIRDIES.
-
-
-    Nine little birdies rocked by the breeze:
-    First birdie said, “I’m tired of these trees;”
-    Next birdie said, “Where shall we go?”
-    Third birdie said, “Where red cherries grow!”
-    Fourth birdie said, “Are they ripe, do you think?”
-    Fifth birdie laughed with a rogue’s own wink;
-    Sixth birdie said, “I’m sure that they are;”
-    Seventh birdie said, “Is it very far?”
-    Eighth birdie said, “Who’ll leader be?”
-    Ninth birdie said, “I’m off, follow me!”
-    Whew! Whew!
-    And away they all flew
-    Into Mr. John Lee’s
-    Choice cherry trees!

-WHAT BA-BY DID.
-
-
-    What do you think the ba-by did?
-    Why, Ba-by did as he was bid!
-
-    The dar-ling took a pen, and wrote--
-    A lit-tle in-vi-ta-tion note,
-
-    To all the aunts, and grand-mam-ma,
-    To un-cles all, and grand-pa-pa,
-
-    To all the ba-by kin ar-ray,
-    To come to din-ner Christ-mas Day.
-
-[Illustration: HE WRITES IT.]
-
-    He wrote it ver-y black and plain,
-    Criss-crossed and marked it all a-gain;
-
-[Illustration: HE MAILS IT.]
-
-    And though he had not had his nap
-    He next was seen in cloak and cap,
-
-    And go-ing up the crowd-ed street,
-    Safe in his hand the mis-sive sweet,
-
-    To drop it in the box him-self,
-    The aw-ful lit-tle dar-ling elf!
-

-
-TWO KIND LIT-TLE GIRLS.
-
-
-    Whith-er a-way,
-    Lit-tle la-dies so gay?
-    “O, o-ver the hill
-    To Grand-moth-er Dill!”
-    And what have you there
-    In your bas-ket square?
-    “O, pud-dings and pies,
-    A lit-tle sur-prise!”
-    Why such good-will
-    To Grand-moth-er Dill?
-    “O, ev-er-y one should
-    On Christ-mas do good!”
-    Lit-tle maids, good day!
-    Flow-ers strew your way!

-AN APRIL RAIN.
-
-
-    You poor little birds,
-      It’s happened again--
-    In the midst of your play
-      Down patters the rain.
-
-    You were caught in a shower
-      Just so last week,
-    And I thought that morning
-      I ought to speak;
-
-    I hear you all up
-      A-singing at dawn,
-    I know you have tried
-      Each tree on the lawn,
-
-    Yet not one of you all
-      Have picked up a straw--
-    Such improvident birds
-      I ne’er before saw.
-
-    But I hope you see now
-      That it would be best
-    To let your play go
-      And build you a nest.

-
-WHAT THE GRASSES SAID.
-
-
-    Who can hear the grass talk?
-      Very few, I know;
-    Yet it whispers every day,
-      Sweet and soft and low.
-
-    And one day I heard it;
-      Shall I tell you when?
-    I lay on the grass to read,
-      And I heard it then.
-
-    Everything was pleasant;
-      Bright the sun did shine;
-    Dew lay in the flowers’ eyes,
-      Heavy sleep in mine;
-
-    So I gently shut them;
-      Soon they opened wide;
-    For I heard the grasses talk
-      Fast on every side!
-
-    This is what they talked about:
-      “Oh, what pleasant weather!
-    Lift your heads up to the sun,
-      Nod and wave together!
-
-    “We’re so glad that we are grass,
-      Cool and soft and green;
-    Oh, how sad the earth would look
-      If no grass were seen!
-
-[Illustration]
-
-    “And we love the summer warm,
-      But, oh, dear! oh, dear!
-    What will little grasses do
-      When winter cold is here?
-
-    “How the wind will whistle
-      Round about our heads!
-    Oh it’s very hard to have
-      No covers on our beds!”
-
-    Then the wise red-rose bush
-      Tall, and rough and old,
-    Shook his head, and kindly said,
-      “You will not be cold,
-
-    “For God sends a blanket warm
-      For every blade of grass,
-    Soft and light, and white as wool;
-      Not a blade He’ll pass!”
-
-    “What’s the blanket made of?
-      Quick! we want to know!”
-    “Why, my dears,” the rose-bush said,
-      “God’s blanket is the snow.”

-
-    Wash-wash-you-cat,
-      Now this side, now that!
-    Wash-wash-you-cat,
-      Keep clean and grow fat!
-
-    Four lit-tle ears,
-      And eight lit-tle paws,
-    Two small nos-es,
-      And for-ty sharp claws,
-
-    Give moth-er’s tongue
-      A great deal to do.
-    So hush! keep still,
-      And I’ll sing to you:
-
-    _Purr-r! purr-r!
-      In a sil-ver house,
-    Moth-er once saw
-      A lit-tle white mouse,_
-
-    _Soft white fur,
-      And lit-tle pink eyes,
-    So round and plump,
-      And so ver-y wise._
-
-    Wash-wash-you-cat,
-      Now hold up your chin.
-
-[Illustration]
-
-    Me-ow! don’t you scratch--
-      To scratch is a sin.
-
-    Me-ow! Me-ow!
-      You _bad_ lit-tle cat,
-    You mustn’t bite;
-      Moth-er won’t stand that!
-
-    Purr-r! purr-r!
-      Now shut up your eyes;
-    Moth-er will make
-      You some cat-nip pies.
-
-    Purr-r! purr-r!
-      Lit-tle balls of fur,
-    Purr-r! purr-r!
-      Lie still, and don’t stir.
-
-    Wash-wash-you-cat,
-      Lit-tle balls of fur!

-SOME NAUGHTY I’S.
-
-
-      “I, I, I,”
-    Some little people cry:
-      “I won’t, I can’t,
-      I shall, I shan’t--”
-    Oh, what a naughty I;
-
-      “I, I, I,”
-    Now hear them passing by:
-      “I han’t, I be,
-      I are, I see--”
-    Oh, what a naughty I.
-
-
-
-
-AT BREAK-FAST.
-
-
-    A gay lit-tle bird
-      That want-ed some fun
-    Flew in and light-ed
-      On the ba-by’s bun.
-
-    He pecked at a cur-rant,
-      He sipped from the cup,
-    Then hopped on the loaf,
-      And thus piped up:
-
-    “_Peep-sy weeps!_ Ba-by, say,
-    What’ll you give if I will stay?
-    _Peep-sy weeps!_ Ba-by, O,
-    What’ll you give if I will go?”
-
-[Illustration: AN AS-TON-ISHED BA-BY.]
-
-    He splashed the milk,
-      He nib-bled the bread,
-    He spread both wings,
-      He stood on his head.
-
-    But still the ba-by
-      Said nev-er a word--
-    And out of the win-dow
-      Flashed the bird!
-
-    “_Peep-sy weeps!_” loud sang he,
-    “Such a stu-pid ba-by I nev-er did see!
-    Nev-er a smile, nev-er a word--
-    _Peep-sy weeps!_ I’m glad I’m a bird!”
-
-
-
-
-BA-BY DIM-PLE AT BREAK-FAST.
-
-
-    She sits in the porch with her sau-cer;
-      Smeared are her fin-gers and thumbs;
-    While a-round with nois-y clat-ter
-      Old hen, with her chick-ens comes.
-
-    Ba-by shoos and shoos, and strikes them
-      With the spoon that spills the crumbs:
-    “_Do ’way chick-ies! ’ou s’an’t hab em--
-      My nice bwead an’ las-ses tums!_”
-
-    But the chick-ies sly will pick them
-      When Miss Dim-ple’s not on the watch;
-    And old moth-er hen comes bold-ly
-
-[Illustration]
-
-      With her mind made up for a snatch.
-    Take care, Mrs. Hen-ny-pen-ny!
-      One good rap is what you catch,
-    With Miss Dim-ple’s sharp ad-vise-ment:
-      “_’Ou la-zy ol’ fing--go scwatch!_”
-
-
-
-
-NOBODY KNOWS.
-
-
-    How the wind whistles and roars!
-    How he blows, he blows, and he blows!
-    But what does he say at the doors?
-    Nobody knows, nobody knows.
-
-    The ground is covered with white,
-    For it snows, it snows, and it snows;
-    But it falls so silent at night
-    That nobody knows, nobody knows.
-
-    The grass is springing again,
-    And it grows, it grows, and it grows,
-    In the sunshine and the rain--
-    How, nobody knows, nobody knows.
-
-    Hear the black cock flap his wings!
-    And he crows, he crows, and he crows;
-    But whether he laughs or he sings,
-    Why, nobody knows, nobody knows.
-
-    The brook runs sparkling along,
-    And it flows, it flows, and it flows;
-    But what is its rippling song,
-    Why, nobody knows, nobody knows.
-
-    The cow comes down through the lane,
-    And she lows, she lows, and she lows;
-    But what she says it is plain
-    That nobody knows, nobody knows.
-
-    Over the fields and away
-    Fly the crows, the crows, the crows;
-    They caw, they caw, but they say
-    What nobody knows, nobody knows.

-THE LOST CHICKENS.
-
-
-    “CLUCK, cluck! cluck, cluck!” called the mother-hen,
-      “Some harm has come to my chickens, I fear;
-    I counted this morning, and then there were ten;
-      Now four are gone, and but six are here.”
-
-[Illustration: “ALL SAFE AND SOUND.”]
-
-    “Peep, peep! peep, peep!” four chickens replied,
-      As they sipped the dew from a burdock leaf;
-    “We must hurry back to our mother’s side,
-      She is calling us now with a voice of grief.”
-
-    Then away to her side they ran again,
-      Leaving the dainty drink they had found;
-    “Cluck, cluck! cluck, cluck!” said the mother-hen,
-      “Here are my ten, all safe and sound.”

-    I’m going to make a dolly,
-      Just like the baby there;
-    I’m going to take some sunshine
-      And twist it up for hair.
-
-    I’m going to take the bluest speck
-      In all the great blue skies,
-    And make a bright blue pretty pair
-      Of little winking eyes.
-
-    I’m going to take some roses,
-      The sweetest, brightest pink,
-    To make her little darling cheeks,
-      The very thing, I think!
-
-    But, oh dear me! I surely am
-      Forgetting all the while,
-    I cannot find a single thing
-      To make baby’s smile.

-
-
-HOW THE BABY WAS NAMED.
-
-
-    Mother’s busy washing;
-      Jack has gone to school;
-    Baby’s in the garden;
-      Kitty has a spool.
-
-    Every one is busy
-      This bright summer day,
-    None more so than Baby,
-      Working hard to play.
-
-[Illustration]
-
-    Hat stuck full of daisies,
-      Dolls are daisy-crowned--
-    Daisies, daisies everywhere
-      Lying on the ground.
-
-    Out comes little pussy
-      Tossing them about;
-    Baby calls, “Go way now!”
-      With a little pout.
-
-    Summer sun grows warmer;
-      Baby tires with play;
-    Down upon the green grass
-      Fast asleep she lay;
-
-    Daisies all about her,
-      Sunshine overhead,
-    Pussy nestled closely
-      In this summer bed.
-
-    Mother from her washing
-      Comes, and finds her there
-    With the wide-eyed daisies
-      Nestling in her hair.
-
-    Then was Baby christened
-      In the summer sweet;
-    Now, no longer “Baby,”
-      But sweet Marguerite.
-
-
-
-
-THE WINDOW-PANE TREE.
-
-
-    With her warm little finger,
-        Gold Locks wrote
-    On the icy window-pane
-        A note.
-
-    “Make me a Christmas-tree,”
-        It read;
-    It was signed with a flourish,
-        “Yours, Gold Head.”
-
-    Then out came the sunlight’s
-        Sparkling ray;
-    It melted the message
-        All away.
-
-    But the very next morning,
-        Lo! behold!
-    On the glass of the window,
-        White and cold,
-
-    Was a tapering fir-tree,
-        Weighed with snow,
-    Spire-like at the top,
-        And broad below.
-
-    Cried out little Gold Locks,
-        “See, oh, see!
-    Jack Frost has painted
-        My Christmas-tree!”

-BIRDS IN WINTER.
-
-
-    Come now, little birds,
-      You must stop in your play,
-    The snow’s coming down,
-      You must hide you away.
-
-    You must huddle together
-      And keep yourselves warm,
-    In snug nooks and corners
-      Shut out from the storm.
-
-    Be patient and wait,
-      The clouds will go by,
-    And sunshine once more
-      Will brighten the sky.
-
-[Illustration]
-
-    In the woods and the fields
-      Where summer-plants grew,
-    The buds and the seeds
-      Are stored up for you.
-
-    You can seek them for food
-      When the weather is fair,
-    And chirp your sweet songs
-      In the clear pleasant air.

-THREE TRAVELLERS.
-
-
-    Three funny little travellers
-      Set out to leave the town;
-    And all they wore to keep them warm
-      Was one white, ruffled gown.
-
-    I asked these little travellers
-      If far they meant to roam.
-    “Oh, no,” they all together said;
-      “We’ll not go far from home.”
-
-    The first brave one who started out
-      Was our sweet Baby May;
-    She said, “I’m going to By-lo-Land,”
-      In such a sleepy way.
-
-    The second one, in gown of white,
-      Was Alice, six years old;
-    She said, “I go to Shutty-eye-town,”
-      And on she went, both fast and bold.
-
-    And Lottie, eldest one of all,
-      Said, “On this road I plod,
-    To 76, Old Blanket street,
-      Bedfordshire, the Land of Nod.”
-
-    I wondered where these towns could be,
-      When mamma softly said,
-    “Good night, good night, my children dear!
-      Now hurry off to _bed_!”      --_J. S._

-A TALE OF A BOT-TLE.
-
-
-    A bot-tle of ink on the ta-ble,
-      A lit-tle girl on the floor--
-    And now I don’t think I’ll be a-ble
-      To tell you an-y-thing more.
-
-    The lit-tle girl up to the ta-ble,
-      Mam-ma look-ing in at the door--
-    And now I don’t think I’ll be a-ble
-      To tell you an-y-thing more.
-
-    The lit-tle girl runs from the ta-ble,
-      Bot-tle rolls down to the floor--
-    And now I don’t think I’ll be a-ble
-      To tell you an-y-thing more.
-
-    Then mam-ma runs up to the ta-ble,
-      Lit-tle girl runs for the door--
-    And now I don’t think I’ll be a-ble
-      To tell you an-y-thing more.
-
-[Illustration: A ROGUE.]
-
-    Mam-ma runs a-way from the ta-ble,
-      And catch-es the girl at the door--
-    And now, oh! I _know_ I’m not a-ble
-      To tell you an-y-thing more.

-
-A WONDERFUL SCHOLAR.
-
-
-      O, a wonderful scholar
-        Is our little Kate!
-    She reads in a primer;
-      She writes on a slate;
-    Her lines are not even;
-      Her O’s are not round;
-    And her words in the reader
-      Could not be found.
-
-      Her sewing--what puckers!
-        What stitches! what knots!
-    And along the whole hem,
-      There are tiny red spots.
-    Her weekly reports
-      Tell how oft she has spoken;
-    And there’s not a rule
-      That she never has broken.
-
-    [Illustration]
-
-    Yet she comes to mamma
-      For a smile and a kiss,
-    As if a “bad mark,”
-      Should be paid for by this.
-
-    And she cries in delight,
-      While she swings round her hat:
-    “I’m a wonderful scholar,
-      For I can spell ‘cat!’
-                C-A-T, _Cat_!”
-                              --_K. L._

-
-OUT IN THE MEADOW.
-
-
-    What do you think I saw to-day
-    Out in the meadow bright,
-    It tripped along on four little feet
-    In a coat all woolly and white;
-
-    I said “Good morning, you pretty thing!”
-    And it raised its gentle head
-    As if it wanted to chat awhile;
-    But, “_Baa-Baa_,” was all it said!
-
-    What do you think I led with me,
-    Blue eyed, dimpled, and sweet?
-    It hardly bent the daisies down
-    With _two_ little toddling feet;
-
-    She laughed and chattered at Woolly-back,
-    She patted his little head;
-    But he talked almost as well as she,
-    For “_ma-ma_” was all _she_ said!

-deal to do)

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to

-States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the
-United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
-claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
-displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
-all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope
-that you will support the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting
-free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm
-works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
-Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with the work. You can easily
-comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the
-same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg-tm License when
-you share it without charge with others.
-
-1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
-what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are
-in a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States,
-check the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this
-agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing,
-distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any

-phrase "Project Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed,
-performed, viewed, copied or distributed:
-
-  This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and
-  most other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no
-  restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or re-use it
-  under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included with this

-  United States, you'll have to check the laws of the country where you
-  are located before using this ebook.
-
-1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is
-derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not
-contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the
-copyright holder), the work can be copied and distributed to anyone in

-electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
-contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
-or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
-intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
-other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
-cannot be read by your equipment.
-
-1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
-of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all

-received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
-with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
-with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org

-

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
