See my dear, old grandma in her easy-chair! How gray her hair is! She
wears glasses when she reads.
She is always kind, and takes such good care of me that I like to do what
she tells me.

to get it for her. Then she says, "Thank you, my boy."

do all yon could to please her?

"The bee likes honey as well as we do, but it does not like to be shut up
in the flower.
"Shall we let it out, Lucy?"
"Yes; then it can go to other flowers, and get honey.
