The feelings of parent. regarding child il

n the following verses, written by Barry Corn
sall, an English poet.
Send doa thy winged Angel. God!
Amidst this night 20 wild,
Aud bld him come, where now we watch,
And breathe upon our child.
She lies upon her pillow. pale,
And means within her sleep,
Or wakeneth with patient smile,
Aud striveth not to weep!
How gentle and how good child
She is, we know too well,
Aud dearer to the parents hearts
Tnan our weak words can tell.
We love, we watch throughout the night,
To aid. when need may be;
We hope-and have despaired at times,
But nooc we turn to Thee!
Send down thy sweet.souled angel, God!
Amidst the darkness wild,
And bid him sOothe our souls tonight,
And heal our gentle child!
