To
my dearest Mama
On her birthday
May 1st 1821
This is the first of May
And let us have a merry day
And we must jump and we must play
Because it is your dear birthday
And many more I hope you’ll see
And spend them very happily
I hope we shall have the pleasure of your Company in the Cottage to dine and drink tea but pray take care not to make yourself sick with nedcakes
your ever
affectionate Arabell
