Audio Challenge:Foreign Lands

9. Foreign LandsBy Robert Louis Stevenson (1885)UP into the cherry treeWho should climb but little me?I held the trunk with both my handsAnd looked abroad on foreign lands.I saw the next door garden lie,Adorned with flowers, before my eye,And many pleasant places moreThat I had never seen before.If I could find a higher treeFarther and farther I should see,To where the grown-up river slipsInto the sea among the ships.To where the roads on either handLead onward into fairy land,Where all the children dine at five,And all the playthings come alive.
