SWEET BABY.
Baby in its ci'adle sleepingAngel child ! Smiles about its face are creeping Sweet and mild.. Would that I could share its dreaming. See its heavily visions gleaming 1 . Ah, how pure the baby s seeming, Undofiled. Fairest gems thou hast, replacing Earthly toys, Rarest flowers thy realm are gracing, Rich thy joysHoly Mose ! the kid is waking, Night melodious he'll be making, What a raking, shaking, quaking, Stop ! that ! noise ! ! !
