1.Do you see the boy and the girl in the picture?They are brother and sister.The boy is pointing to a star that twinkles in the sky.
2.The sun has set,and soon it will be quite dark.A woman is driving her cows home to be milked.
3.It is not very late yet,for there is only that one star in the sky.When night comes therewill be thousands of stars shining.But that one is always the first to be seen.
4.Because it shines in the evening,it is called “the Evening Star.”It warns us that night is coming on.
5.Perhaps the boy is telling this to his sister;or he may be saying to her the pretty verses about the twinkling star:-6.Little star,so high,so high,Shining in the deep blue sky;Little star,so far,so far,Who can tell me what you are?
7.When the golden day is done,And the night is just begun,Then I wait and watch for you As you twinkle through the blue.
8.When the night grows dark and chill,Then you shine more bright and still;And your kindly watch you keep While the little children sleep.
9.Little star,so high,so high,Shining in the far-off sky;Silver star,I love you true,And to-night I‘ll dream of you.
