THE ToYMAKER.
You carve no horned Moses: by your art
No mighty Davids from their marbles start;
Nor popes nor potentates your prowess praise.
Yours is the genius of the gentler days.
From wooden blocks, 10! ships and sailors smart;
From branches, cabins perfect in each part
The boy in you your handiwork betrays
And who would choose the art of long ago
If by his magic he could WELD the wand
That Stevensons possess, and Barries know,
And the Pied Piper sounds to call his band?
Who would not whitte toys IL, doing so.
He made the heart of childhood understand?
