Zoomicorns.And . . . that was enough. Sarah turned back to her book. We’re done now, Harriet.Parunicorns.Sarah couldn’t even imagine where that one had come from. But still, she found herself humming as she read.Oranges and lemons say the bells of St. Clements.Meanwhile, Harriet was muttering to herself at the desk. Pontoonicorns xyloonicorns . . .You owe me five farthings say the bells of St. Martins.Oh, oh, oh, I have it! Hughnicorns!Sarah froze. This she could not ignore.
