Which had met me unawares.
When little voice came ringing,

AS no wording can define.
And [ turned to see my darling,
All forgetful of my cares:
When ! saw the little creature,
Slowly creeping up the stairs.
step BY step she bravely clambered,
on her little hands and knees,
Keeping UP . constant chattering,
Like a magpie in q tree,
Till at last, She reached the topmOst,
When DER AN her worlds affairs,
she deligh,eI-stood q victor,
After creeping UP the stairs.
Painting heart behold an image,
OF mans brief and struggling life;
Whose best prizes must be captured,
With a nOble-earnest strife
Onward-upward reaching over.
Bending 20 the weight Of cares;
Hoping, fearing, still expecting,
We go creeping up the stairs.
on the floor may DE no carpet.
By the side may bc no rail-
Hands and knees may often palm US,
And our heart may almost fail,
Still aboye-there is a glory,
Which no sinfulness impairs.
With its rest and JOY forever,
After creeping up the stairs.
