two years old and had for several years been

Life with its sorrows awaits thee;
Dream, dream, of the things that seem
Careless whatever life's fates be.

AS the winds sigh on thro' the wildwood
All! what would we give if we could but live
Again in the dreams of childhood!

Tender lays of the bygone days,
Come hull me into sleeping.

Sigh on! sigh on thro' the wildwood.
