AT dawn or Life, a helpless infant child.
Cherished and tended by n mothers care,
unciouded love my bosom then beguilod-
All was bright sunshine, beautiful and fair,
Then, rs son sleep held me In It's embrace,
An angel told me with smiling face.
'Child, tits rision, though they name II Life"
And then woke, brigh.eyed, Joyous boy
Ny infant dream had quickly passed away;
All that crayed was sonc small worthless toy,
To soothe my SORROWS and my fears allay.
TIL shadowy night had spread It's mantle round
heard sweet echoes, such In Heaven ara found,
boy, us vision, though they call II Life"
Again doep sleep (my angel teacher) came
I'D learned its message by experience well
"Dlan, know yo now that Life II all n dream,y
That tits n vision. holds thee by its spell ~
And now. convinced that Life Is all n dream"
I'll patient wait wait till that angel opes the
gate
And calls me from this dream, to enter Life.
