To an Infant.

Timely blossom, infant fair,
Fondling Of happy pair;
Every morn, and every night,
Their solicitous delight;
Sleeping, waking, still, at ease,
Pleasing, without skill to please;
Little gossip, blithe and hale,
Tattling many a broken tale,
Singing many tuneless song,
Lavish Of needless tongue;
Simple maiden, void Of art,
Babbling out the very heart;
Yet abandoned to thy will,
Yet imagining no Ill,
Yet too innocent to blush;
Like thu linnet in the bush;
To the mother innet's note
Modelling her little throat,
CHIPPING forth thy petty joys,
Wanton in the change Of toys;
Like the linnet green in May,
Fitting to each bloomy spray:
Wearied then and glad Of rest,
Like the linnet in the nest.
This thy present happy lot,
This, in time viii be forgot;
Other pleasures, other cares,
Every busy Time prepares!
And thou shalt in thy daughter see,
This picture, once resembled thee.
