Anne Rice. Lasher (Lives of the Mayfair Witches — 2)

FOR THESE WITH LOVE


Stan Rice,

Christopher Rice and

John Preston


Vicky Wilson,

with thanks always

for her courage,

her vision, her soul


My godmother and aunt,

Patricia O’Brien Harberson,

the lady with the loving heart,

who carried me to church


AND


in memory of

Alice Allen Daviau,

my mother’s sister,

who gave me so very much


The sow came in with the saddle.

The little pig rocked the cradle.

The dish jumped over the table

To see the pot swallow the ladle.

The spit that stood behind the door

Threw the pudding-stick on the floor.

“Odsplut!” said the gridiron,

“Can’t you agree?

I’m the head constable,

Bring them to me!”

MOTHER GOOSE
