Description:

A girl wearing a hat and a haughty air is seen from the side standing in front of a hedged-in garden with a row of shrubs growing in pots and flower beds. The rhyme goes as follows:

Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells, and cockle shells,
And cowslips all of a row.
