There are little ones. and tender.
Who beg for bread TO eat
Nhile@the gold they earn lies boarded
About their masters feet
There are lips. o little mother.
That speak the Holy Name.
And heap upon His altar
The gold OF childish shamei
stu the hand OF greed heeds never.
mat hand is never stayed
But the tears OF little children
Against the gift are weighed,
mother. folding closely
The child against thy breast
There are little ones. and tender.
Ihat know no place OF rest
