A Child.

Old signs are written in thy tender face,
Desires, regrets that thou- hast never
Known;
Thou art the heir Of by aspiring race,
Heir Of a troubled throne.
OF hope that hardly dost portend the
- morn,
And sadness, that hast scarcely guessed
at pain.
God takes the characters of fate out
And writes them fair again.
Those little feet that scarce the light turf
press,
Those little hands, so brown with wine
and sun.
God grant they tremble not for weari-
Before thy course be done.
And thou shalt love, and learn what love
is worth.
And thou shalt trust and learn to value
men.
And ali the sudden mysteries of earth
Shall open to thy ken.
What, wilt be flying? Am I, then, too
staid?
Can I not smooth the meditative brow,
Flash through the sun and flutter through
the shade,
AS birds from bough to Dough?
What, dost thou linger? All, my dear,
how much
Thou givest, couldst thou only under
stand!
The kiss of childish pity, and the touch
OF thine absolving hand.
