Famous quotes containing the word follen:

    Three little kittens
    They lost their mittens,
    And they began to cry,
    Oh, mother dear,
    We sadly fear
    Our mittens we have lost.
    What! lost your mittens,
    You naughty kittens!
    Then you shall have no pie.
    —Eliza Lee Follen (1787–1860)
