🤣🤣 What is your final guess?

It's vaguely familiar- a part from the Bible, that is.
I can't remember who said it.

Yay! Yes, we've been waiting for you! This is the current question, shared by Emma and your humble servant...

My answer should be Jesus and it was written in the Bible.😏I'm sure that's not the answer you are looking for, but it might be John Milton Morse who wrote "The Orange Mountain Drive."😉

The Benefactress Matryoshka.
Three Matryoshkas, all in a row;
So round and cheerful are their faces.
The largest, the benefactress
Of the little village orphanage.
The little village orphanage,
Filled with the little orphaned matryoshkas.
The mothers all gone, broken by careless hands.
None left, save the Benefactress Matryoshka.
The Benefactress Matryoshka,
Filled with motherly tenderness,
Teaches to her little matryoshkas,
The value of charity.
'Tis more blessed to give, than to receive,'
Quoth the Benefactress Matryoshka,
The teaching of our Lord
to her gentle daughters twain.
Great will be the joy
Of those gentle Matryoshka sisters
When they carry on the loving charity
Of their gentle mother kind,
The Benefactress Matryoshka.
