wee child with sunny curls. Blue eyes, and dimpled chin.And a young, pure, and loving heart Unstained as yet by sin.Upon the woman poor and sad Her eyes in wonder fell.Till wonder changed to pilvins; love. Her thoughts, oh. who could tell?Her tiny hands four roses held; She looked them oer and oer,Then choosing out the laruest one.
