HER OWN LITTLE ROOM.
This pretty student-lamp's mine;
I may sit up until nine,
Nut I shall join mother dear
Till I come up for the night,
So I my candle shall light
Unless she sits with me here.

Till I come up for the night,
So I my candle shall light
Unless she sits with me here.
Sometimes my friends will come in
Very soon I shall begin
Asking them duly to come.
Here I mean to "receive;"
Oh, you may laugh, but believe!
For this is my home in my home!
