Picture this: a charming scene where a whimsical narrator shares their adventures in town, bidding adieu as the sun begins to set. The imagery unfolds with a white rabbit nibbling on lettuce, a plump duck wondering about a missing companion, and two small mice eagerly awaiting the narrator's arrival over the hill. The enchanting narrative continues with a mention of the stars and the pale moon under which friends frolic and play with joy. The playful tone of the poem radiates warmth and innocence, inviting readers young and old to join in the merriment. So, as the poem goes, let us bid you all a good day, gentle folk, filled with wonder and whimsy just like the delightful characters in this delightful poem.

Good-Day, Gentle Folk

OH, yes, sir and miss, I have been to the town ;
It really was pleasant and gay ;
But now I must hurry, the sun's going down,
And so I will wish you good-day.
And so I will wish you good-day, gentle folk,
And so I will wish you good-day.

I know a white rabbit just over the hill,
He's eating a lettuce for tea ;
And a fat speckled duck, with a very large bill,
Is quacking,"Oh, where can she be ?"
And two little mice are there, standing quite still,
They're all of them waiting for me.

For we all love the stars and the little pale moon,
Beneath them we frolic and play ;
My friends have been waiting the whole afternoon,
And so I will wish you good-day.
And so I will wish you good-day, gentle folk,
And so I will wish you good-day.
