Beauty.

There's beauty in the infants smile,
The tear that dims its little eye,
The voice that lisps its mothers name,
Nor seems to think that it must die.
There's beauty in its tender form,
When on its mothers breast reclined;
It's little folded arms display,
Beauty and innocence combined.
There's beauty in the maiden's cheek
When before the altar led,
There's beauty in the brilliant eye
OF her who would another wed.
There's beauty in those silvery tones
OF voice, which tells she joyful is,
When as she speaks her lovers name,
She's pledged to be forever his.
There's beauty in the manly form
OF youth and conscious purity,
The quick, firm step, elastic tread,
And noble look which all must see.
The bold, keen eye, the dark brown hair,
The lips together firmly pressed,
The noble fUrehead-lofty mien,
And calmness ever self-possessed.
There's beauty on the brow Of age,
OF those who many years have seen;
Their noble locks and wrinkles too,
Reminds US what the past has been.
The weakening form, the tottering step,
The trembling hand, and lips so thin,
Oft tell tale of other days,
OF noble deeds and noble men.
There's beauty in the lofty SIX,
And in the stars that shine so bright;
There's beauty in the pale, clear moon,
That serves to light our steps by night
There's beauty on the ocean wave,
And one that has n charm to me,
And often, too, at evening tide
There's beauty in the calm, blue sea.
There's beauty thus on every side,
In every cline our feet have trod,
And of kind We most admire
The beauty Of the works of God.
