THE LITTLE KING,
A littlo face to look at,
A little face to kiss,
Is there anything, I wondor
That's half in sweet as this?
"A little chook to dimale.
When smiles begin to grow, A little mouth betraying
Which way the kisse, go..
A slender little ringlet,
A rosy little ear,
A little chin to quiver,
When falls the little tear.
A Little hand eo Fragilo,
All through the night to hold,
Two little feet so teler
To tuck in from the cold.
Two byss to watch the sunbeam
That with the shadows plays-- A darling little baby.
To kiss and love always.
