Kitty and Betty, and Peter and Dare,

(A quartell of jewels both rice and rare:)

Peter and Dare, and Betty and Kitty,

Two of them nice, and two of them pretty,

For girls are all pretty, and boys are all nice,

You can tell the difference in a trice:

But Herbert Dunelm is never pretty,

And as to niceness you just ask Kitty.

H.D.

I sent these nonsense lines to the four Wilson Children, who sent me the group of themselves as a Christmas Card.

I worked at a sermon for next Sunday when, according to custom, I must preach in the Cathedral.

In the afternoon I walked in the Park with Lionel: and then wrote a number of letters.
