The Sewing Doll


The Sewing Doll
by Amelia De Wolfjers

There was a little milkmaid, and 
Her pails were spools of thread;
A thimble-holder as a hat
She wore upon her head.

And there were pins of black and white
Around the brim stuck in,
And to her anyone could go
To get a safety pin.

Her apron white and dainty was
A little needle-book;
The rod her milk-pail-spools were on 
Was just a crochet-hook.

And people called this pretty maid
"Our useful little Poll'';
She was a help to every one,
This little "Sewing Doll."
