L'ENFANT

Oh! quelle triste historic
Tu viens de me confer! La pauvre! peut-on croire
Qu'e]le ait autant %souffert par ses cruels enfants!
Je comprends son regard ct ses membres trambiants.
Dire gull est des gems que sa vue importune,
ct que j6tais ainsi!. 90. Que maize une fortune,
Je la lul donnerais pour calmer son chagrin,
Et pour Qu'elle matt plus d tendre encor la main.
LA MERE
ST tn ne peux, enfants, lui donner la richesse,
Tu peux la secourir, du moins, en- sa d6tresse,
Et &c moroccan de paiu pris sur notre labeur,
Tu peux laccompagner dun mot parti du c@ur,
Au lieu de lui fermer notre pauv1e c~haumiere,
Sit6t que tn Tentends, ouvre-lui la %premiere;
Accours-l ui v1te en- aide ct ~prends-la par la main.
Parle-lui doucement....
L'ENFANT
La voici, la pauvre anne!
Oh! je Paime q present! 80. Entrez, ma bonnie femme,
Tenez, prenez CO pain ct ces fruits savoureux:
Les jours Oh vous viendrez seront des jours heureux.
