Am Essay on the Cow.

The following is little girls essay on
the COW: "A COW is an animal with four
legs on the under side. The tail Is longer
than the legs, but IS not used to stand on.
The cow kills flies with her tail. The cow
has big ears that wiggles on hinges: so does
her tail. The cow is bigger than the calf,
but not so big as an elephant She is made
so small that she can 60 into the barn when
nobody is looking. Some COWS are black

Flashing afar its warning light
Where many dangers bel

The fishers heart leaps high to see
That, calm, majestic form
For. Just beyond, a lesser light

Where, peering out INTO the gloom.
His wife and children are.

To bless yon beacon start
Unheeded Oft, in glare of day,
And when the skies are clear;
Yet brighter shining, as the night
And tempest gather near,
With almost human sympathy
Like loved ones round US herei
Serene amid the tempest-shock-
The lghtning's binding glare;
Symbol of Duty evermore,
Tho nights be foul or fair;
Cheering the weary ocean-tossed,
Like to an answered prayeri
