most heartily, Aunt Julia, for printing my

NoBoDYs DARLING ON EARTH
Out in the cold all alone,
| Walking about in the street,
Asking a penny for bread;
Begging for something to eat.
! Parentless, friendless and poor,
| Nothing but sorrow l see;
| am Saobody's darling,
Nobody cafes for me.
Nobody's darling on earth;
| Heaven would merciful be;
There I am somebody's darling,
| Somebody cares for me.
No one to kiss me goodnight,
No one to put me to bed;
| Up in the attic alone,
| Weeping for those who are dead.
| Merciless winds chill my form,
| Sitting on Poverty's knee;
| I am nobodys darling,
| Nobody cares for me.
| often at night when l kneel
| Lifting my sorrowful eyes;
| Asking my mother to smile
| Down from her home in the skies:
| Then 1 forget all my grief;
! Mother, in heaven, / see;
| Then / am somebody's darling,
| Somebody cares for me.
