A MONTH sweet Little ones is past	A
Since your dear Mother went away	B
And she tomorrow will return	C
Tomorrow is the happy day	B
	-
O blessed tidings thought of joy	D
The eldest heard with steady glee	E
Silent he stood then laughed amain	C
And shouted ' Mother come to me '	-
	-
Louder and louder did he shout	F
With witless hope to bring her near	G
'Nay patience patience little boy	D
Your tender mother cannot hear '	-
	-
I told of hills and far off town	C
And long long vale to travel through	H
He listens puzzled sore perplexed	I
But he submits what can he do	H
	-
No strife disturbs his sister's breast	J
She wars not with the mystery	E
Of time and distance night and day	B
The bonds of our humanity	E
	-
Her joy is like an instinct joy	D
Of kitten bird or summer fly	K
She dances runs without an aim	L
She chatters in her ecstasy	E
	-
Her brother now takes up the note	M
And echoes back his sister's glee	E
They hug the infant in my arms	N
As if to force his sympathy	E
	-
Then settling into fond discourse	O
We rested in the garden bower	P
While sweetly shone the evening sun	C
In his departing hour	P
	-
We told o'er all that we had done	C
Our rambles by the swift brook's side	Q
Far as the willow skirted pool	R
Where two fair swans together glide	Q
	-
We talked of change of winter gone	C
Of green leaves on the hawthorn spray	B
Of birds that build their nests and sing	S
And all 'since Mother went away '	-
	-
To her these tales they will repeat	T
To her our new born tribes will show	U
The goslings green the ass's colt	V
The lambs that in the meadow go	U
	-
But see the evening star comes forth	W
To bed the children must depart	X
A moment's heaviness they feel	Y
A sadness at the heart	X
	-
'Tis gone and in a merry fit	Z
They run up stairs in gamesome race	A2
I too infected by their mood	B2
I could have joined the wanton chase	A2
	-
Five minutes past and O the change	C2
Asleep upon their beds they lie	K
Their buy limbs in perfect rest	J
And closed the sparkling eye	K
