envy this mother, who cries in her anguish : " Forgive me, My birdie, thrust out of thy nest, the sweet bliss of thy Eden. God help us poor mothers ! how brief is the season of gladness, The fleeting delight of sustaining the weakling dependent ; How welcome were hunger s fierce torture, if only my baby were nourished ! " A VALENTINE.
TO MY GRANDDAUGHTER.
A valentine true will I send to my lady, My lady so small and my lady so young ; In her smiles and her dimples my poor heart is giddy, As the... honey-bee reels where the sweetbrier clung.
O baby, you came with the thrushes and linnets, The roses and lilies and strawberries red ; You shortened the days into hours and minutes, With the measure of love just as high as your head.
54 A VALENTINE. 55 Your hair was the down of the thistle that drifted Above the white daisies ; the blue of your eyes Had stolen the tints of the violets lifted Too pure for the earth, and too meek for the skies.
I brought velvet rose leaves and dew-sprinkled clover To match the soft lips, the fair cheeks of this elf ; I rifled the forest, searched garden and cover, But never a blossom like baby herself.
