Not illustrated. 1895 edition. Excerpt: ... XL FANCY'S FRIEND. TT was a wagon, shaped like a great square basket, ■*■ on low wheels, and drawn by a stout donkey. There was one seat, on which Miss Fairbairn the governess sat; and all round her, leaning over the edge of the basket, were children, with little wooden shovels and baskets in their hands, going down to play on the beach.

It was of no use to tell her that there were no mermaids: Fancy firmly believed in them, and was sure she would see one some day. The other children called the seals mermaids; and were contented with the queer, shiny creatures who played in the water, lay on the rocks, and peeped at them with soft, bright eyes as they sailed by. Fancy was not satisfied with seals, --they were not pretty and graceful enough for her, --and she waited and watched for a real mermaid. On this day she took a breezy run with the beach-birds along the shore; she planted a pretty red weed in her garden; and let out the waterbeetles and snails who had passed the night in her palace. Then she went to a rock that stood near the quiet nook where she played alone, and sat there.… (meer)
