They said:\n\n\"Let's pretend we like the rain, And be happy, once again; We may behold the pot of gold, It's at the rainbow's end we're told.\"\n\nAt that very minute Polly said, \"Oh, look!\" And Peter said, \"Oh, look!\"\n\nWhat do you suppose they saw?\n\nDown in the puddle of water, four and twenty little raindrops turned into four and twenty little fairies, and each one carried a little umbrella.\n\nThey cried to the children:\n\n\"The Rain-Drop Fairies laugh and shout, Oh, get your rubbers and come out; If you should have umbrellas, too, Be sure to bring them out with you.\"\n\nPeter and Polly lost no time, you may be sure.\n\nThey got rubbers and umbrellas and ran out to find the Raindrop Fairies.\n\nThere they stood, with their four and twenty little umbrellas bobbing up and down.\n\nThey said:\n\n\"Hurry, for we give you warning, We're busy on an April morning.\"\n\nPeter and Polly followed them, and they gave cool, refreshing showers everywhere they went.\n\nSuddenly they came to the heart of a great woods, and they called in their four and twenty little voices:\n\n\"Lady April, Lady April, Wake up from your nap; Lady April, Lady April, Hear the Fairies tap.\"\n\nThe Fairies rapped and tapped with their little umbrellas at every tree they came to, hoping Lady April might come out.\n\nThen the Raindrop Fairies sat down in a circle and began to cry:\n\n\"Spring has come, we're not mistaken, But Lady April does not waken.\"\n\nThe Fairies cried into their four and twenty little handkerchiefs because they could not waken Lady April.\n\nThey acted very much like real children after all!\n\nJust how Fairy Sunshine came filtering in through the little green leaves of the trees no one could tell, but there she stood before them, and the Fairies dried their eyes, for she took a little gold key and unlocked the nearest maple tree.\n\nOut stepped Lady April in her rainbow gown.\n\nShe wore a crown of spring flowers.\n\nShe was full of tears and smiles!\n\nAs Lady April stepped out of the tree, the wind blew warmer and warmer, and Fairy Sunshine knelt on one knee and presented her with the pot of gold, for she had been at the rainbow's end and found it.\n\nLady April opened the pot and found it full of smiles, and sunshine, and loving thoughts, and laughter.\n\nShe said, \"I will open the pot of gold when I feel like weeping.\" All the flowers sprang up to greet her.\n\nYellow butterflies floated about her.\n\nBird songs were in the air.\n\nEverything was singing!\n\nThe four and twenty Raindrop Fairies closed their four and twenty little umbrellas and slipped away.\n\nFairy Sunshine kissed the children on both cheeks and said:\n\n\"A merry heart does not mind whether it is fair or stormy weather; As showers and sunshine run a race, Please wear a happy, smiling face.\"\n\nSuddenly Peter and Polly were all alone in the woods.\n\nPeter said, \"How golden your curls are, Polly!\"\n\nPolly said, \"How sunny your smile is!\"\n\nAs they started homeward, they saw sunshine everywhere.\n\nFairy Sunshine had touched the dandelions on the bank.\n\nThe oriole's breast reflected sunshine.\n\nThere was gold on the butterflies' wings.\n\nWhen Peter and Polly arrived home, they found the bird in his cage was singing of sunshine, and the prism on the table reflected all the rainbow colors.\n\nThe children said, \"Wherever we go, we will always carry sunshine with us!\"\n\nAfter that, Peter was called \"Little Sir Sunshine,\" for he had such a sunny smile, and Polly was called \"Little Miss Sunshine,\" for her golden curls went dancing wherever she went.\n\nThey were glad they had learned the song that Fairy Sunshine taught them.",
