The Lost Child.

I've lost a child-o, tell me. did you meet
My little darling in the sunny street.
With wind-blown hair, bright eyes and flying feet
Like swift-winged blrds9
"uow large was shefe why just tiny thing,
It's such short time since used to sing
Low sleepy songs AMI feel her soft arms cling
About my neck.
How old is shetn why. really forget
Just old enough to love and kiss and pet,
Only a merry little maid, aud yet
Not quite a child.
II seems but yesterday saw her 60
Leading her playmates in a laughing row;
You had met heryon would surely know
Her smiling face.
You thought herolder, more than twelve, you say
That cannot be until another May
Opens the buds and brings the happy day
That gave herlfe,
us that the child9 almost a woman grown
She holds her girlish head high as your own;
some one will ind her though she goes alone
You need not fear"
know she's tall and cares no more for toys -
That's Harry with her, making all this noise;
Why don't he go aud play with other boys
I'd like to know.
IT'S 1--we years since hertwelfth birthday was greer
With tender leaves, aud all the months between
Havesupped away til she is seventeen
The child is lost
