Lore and Obedience
BY ARTHUR EUGENE SMITH

BY ARTHUR EUGENE SMITH
Oh we are little children,
And happy all the day
When we are in the schoolroom,
or in the yard at play;
And OH we love our teachers,
And would their rules obeyl
We store up knowledge daily
That Time will turn to gold,
For knowledge is a treasure
That never can be sold;
Nor can an ugly robber
Steal it when we are old
Our hearts are like the robins
That sing beside the door;
our eyes are like the vi'lets
The woodlands hold in store;
And oh, we prize each school day
That will return no morel
When we are known as grown ups"
May other children say,
They once were little children,
And happy in their play
And loved and priced their teachers,
And did their rules obeyl"
