How sweet the accents of that n word
Upon the dewy lip of infancy
1t strikes all vibrant on the deepest chord
OF human hearts, q~uick'ning to melody
Whate'er the tongue-a savage Language
crude,
Patois, or polished language of our age,
The appellation which greets motherhood,
Like blessed balm with bit'rest GRIEF as
suage.
Whisper 1t to the hero on the field,
And mark the soft'ning of his blazing eye;
Speak 1t to him who did his honor yield,
His mouth will droop repentant, visit
fully;
Repeat 1t to the king, cen he will yearn
To change for footstool his canopied
throne;
Unto the orphan breathe 1t, he will turn
His eyes to where a sanity form has
flown.
The feel of childish hands upon the breast,
The tear-wet lash. the smile of purity,
The rose-leaf cheek our saddened lips have
pressed,
Merge, bud in bloom, to rich maturity.
But, ah, there is a spell, q mystic name
That bridges DER the years and tempers
fate.
The incense born of loves hollest flame,
And deeds unselfsh mothers immediate.
