She was always bewailing and bemoaning herself, and saying how dull and lonesome it was in the palace.<br><br>'If we had children there'd be life enough', she said.<br><br>Wherever she went in all her realm she found God's blessing in children, even in the vilest hut; and wherever she came she heard the Goodies scolding the bairns, and saying how they had done that and that wrong. All this the queen heard, and thought it would be so nice to do as other women did.
