小學生雙語晨讀 170 EARLY TO BED,AND EARLY TO RISE 早睡早起

DAY 170

/e/
Ted sent Fred ten hens yesterday so Fred's fresh bread is ready already.

EARLY TO BED,AND EARLY TO RISE 早睡早起

The cock crowns in the morn, 公雞來報曉，

To tell us to rise,催人起得早;

And he that lies late誰要睡懶覺,

Will never be wise,愚鈍終身受;

For early to bed,早睡

And early to rise,又早起，

Is the way to be healthy 有個好身體，

and wealthy and wise. 富裕又聰明。

文選的韻腳為/ait/，需重讀兩個wise/waiz/。
