ec,ve FER THE LIVING CHILD, AND IN
NO WISE sLAY r."
O spare the babe! let not its blood
ssrThe sword Of justice stain,
Nor let wretched mothers voice
For mercy plead in vain.
Sweet innocent if thou art safe,
Thy mothers wish be blest.
Though Graded in strangers arms,
And pillowed on her breast.
I'll anxious watch thy every want,
Thy infant woes beguile,
Thou still shall share mothers CARE,
Ifnot mothers SMILE.
And when to years maturer grown,
Ill bring the truth to view,
And thou shalt read mothers heart,
And know her tale was true.
Then wilt thou shed the>flial tear.
Impart the filial kiss.
And onccmore shall oS len,
And taste mothers bliss.
Then spare my child let not his blood
The sword ofjustice stain,
Nor let mothers wretched voice
For mercy plead in vain.
