I would often read excerpts to my children and many of the poems I could recite verbatim.<br /><br />I agree with (5). I always though that was from "The Sea-Bell", one of my favourites. Another of my favourites was "The Mewlips". The children, well, most of them, loved it. The oldest girl would plead for me not to read it while the other three eagerly waited for me to begin. The other one was (I think it was called) "The Old Troll". I still quote pieces from them to my children who are now in their mid thirties.
