Детские стихи Р.Л. Стивенсона

R.L. Stevenson

RAIN

The rain is raining all around,
It falls on field and tree.
It rains on the umbrellas here,
And on the ships at sea.

Интересно, читал ли Вадим Левин эти стихи? "...И далеко от земли / Мокнут в море корабли".
А вот еще:

WHOLE DUTY OF CHILDREN

A child should always say what's true
And speak when he is spoken to.
And behave mannerly at table;
At least as far as he is able.
