Speak kindly to your mother, and even

and you win see her no more forever He,

when she is passed away, kind hearted sis

one whom, Of all the world you choose for a
partner, may love you fondly but never again
while time is yours, shall the love of one be

I lin agony she bore you; through pulling
helpless infancy, her throbbing breast has
been your safe protection and support in
your hayward childhood, she bore you pa
tiently with your thoughtless rudeness; and
nursed you through legion OF ills and NAL
aides. Her it was that bathed your burning
brow or moistened your parched lips, her eye
lhat lighted up the darkness Of wasting night

sleep. Oh, speak not her name lightly, for
you cannot live so many years IS would suf
