Wee Willie Winkie Nursery Rhyme

"Wee Willie Winkie" is a Scottish nursery rhyme whose titular figure has become popular the world over as a personification of sleep. The poem was written by William Miller and titled "Willie Winkie", first published in Whistle-binkie: Stories for the Fireside in 1841.

"Are the children all in bed, for now it's eight o'clock?"
