It 's a very pleasant , young world ; and I like it a great deal better this morning than I did last night . '' `` I 'm glad of that ; and , even if we do n't find our fairy to-day , you will have found some sunshine , Daisy , and that is almost as good . Now put in the berries , and we 'll go on . '' How they hunted ! They climbed trees to peep into squirrel-holes and birds ' - nests ; they chased bees and butterflies to ask for news of the elves ; they waded in the brook , hoping to catch a water-sprite ; they ran after thistle-down , fancying a fairy might be astride ; they searched the flowers and ferns , questioned sun and wind , listened to robin and thrush ; but no one could tell them any thing of the little people , though all had gay and charming bits of news about themselves . And Daisy thought the world got younger and happier every minute . When they came in to breakfast , papa and mamma looked at Daisy , and then nodded with a smile at Aunt Wee ; for , though Daisy 's frock was soiled , her boots wet , and her hair tumbled , her cheeks were rosy , eyes bright , and voice so cheerful that they thought it better music than any in the summer world without . `` Hunting fairies is a pleasant play , is n't it , Daisy ? '' said papa , as he tasted the berries , and admired the green basket . `` Oh , yes ! and we are going again to-morrow . Aunt Wee says we must try seven days at least . I like it , and mean to keep on till I really find my fairy . '' `` I think you will find something better than ` little vanishers , ' dear , '' said mamma , filling up the bowl of bread and milk which Daisy was fast emptying ; for she certainly had found an appetite . `` There it is again ! '' cried Daisy , flying out of bed the next morning still earlier than the day before . Yes , there it was , the fairy music , as blithe and sweet as ever ; and the morning-glories rung their delicate bells as if keeping time . Daisy felt rather sleepy , but remembered her promise to Aunt Wee , and splashed into her tub , singing the bob-o-link 's song as she bathed . `` Where shall we go to-day ? '' she asked , as they went out into the garden .
`` I XXXXX we 'd better try a new place ; so we 'll go to the farmyard ; and , while we feed the hens , I 'll listen to their chat , and perhaps can learn something from it , '' replied Wee soberly .
