Watching Ger her slecpln9 child,
Thut has sunk at lust In slnmber
From It's playing long and Wild.
Little hands and feet SD rcstla8s,

l}y the Clutacr have bcan folded
Carofal, iundGrly away.
But tho mother still all fnndIy
Watches with worry eye,
Though tho low. sweet riolcs arc silent
OF tlur utt.sunx lullaby.
I'll her lap her hands nrc resting,
And her hcAl! ut times lroops low

And her heavy Dyplltis clt,sc.
