    Sweet is the infant's waking smile,
    And sweet the old man's rest--
    But middle age by no fond wile,
    No soothing calm is blest.

Rock-bye-baby on the tree top,
When the wind blows the cradle will rock.

Suck, baby! suck! mother's love grows by giving:
Drain the sweet founts that only thrive by wasting!

Hands thee the cup that shall be death in tasting.

He is so little to be so large!
Why, a train of cars, or a whale-back barge
Couldn't carry the freight
Of the monstrous weight
Of all of his qualities, good and great.
And tho' one view is as good as another
Don't take my word for it. Ask his mother!

With a pretty, innocent, saintlike air,
Are you trying to think of some angel-taught prayer
You learned above, Baby Louise.

He seemed a cherub who had lost his way
And wandered hither, so his stay
With us was short, and 'twas most meet,
That he should be no delver in earth's clod,
Nor need to pause and cleanse his feet
To stand before his God:
O blest word--Evermore!
