elfism

A writer during the reign of Elizabeth, or soon after, supposed to be no less a personage than the Bishop of Oxford, has, in an ingenious satire, quoted by Sir Walter Scott in his excellent work on Demonology, fixed the period of the decline of elfism - if our readers will tolerate the word — in the latter part of the sixteenth century.

Elves love to tell stories. I'll bet you didn't know that about elves. There's probably a lot of things you didn't know about elves. Another interesting elf-ism: there are only three jobs available to an elf. The first is making shoes at night while, you know, the old cobbler sleeps.

Well, my dears, I have had a passion to express all the Kewpish babyism and elfism in the dolls as well as in the drawings, the wisdom, the kind funniness, the funny kindness.
