BABY.
Pretty baby, mother's pride. Fresh as roses at springtide, Dimpled hands and dimpled feet. Laughing eyes and mouth so sweet. I*retty baby. Glossy hair so soft and bright Fair as is the sweet sunlight ; Mnsic of your baby voice Making mother’s heart rejoice. Pretty baby. Winsome ways and winsome wiles, Happy looks and happy smiles. Funnv cooes ami merry crows Rippling to vonr tinv toes, Pretty baby. Pretty liaby, good as fair, At the bottom of life's stair. Mother loves you, mother prays God will brighten all your days. Pretty baby.
