About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1822 Excerpt: ...The soil of human vice appears--Ere passion hath disturb'd thy cheek, And prompted what thou dar'st not speak; Ere that pale lip is blanch'd with care. Or from those eyes shoot fierce despair, Would I could meet thine untun'd ear, And greet it with a father's pray'r. But little reck'st thou, O my child! Of travail on life's thorny wild, Of all the dangers, all the woes, Each loit'ring footstep which enclose--Ah! little reck'st thou of the scene So darkly wrought, that speeds between The little all we here can find And the dark mystic sphere behind! Little reck'st thou, my earliest born! Of clouds that gather round thy morn, Of arts to lure thy soul astray, Of snares that intersect thy way, Of secret foes, of friends untrue, Of fiends who stab the heart they woe-Little thou reck'st of this sad store! Would thou might'st never reck them more! But thou wilt burst this transient sleep, And thou wilt wake, my babe, to weep--The tenant of a frail abode, Thy tears must flow, as mine have flow'd--Beguil'd by follies, ev'ry day, Sorrow must wash thy faults away; And thou may'st wake perchance to prove The pang of unrequited love. Unconscious babe! tho' on that brow No half-fledg'd mis'ry nestles now--Scarce round those placid lips a smile Maternal fondness shall beguile, Ere the moist footsteps of a tear Shall plant their dewy traces there, And prematurely pave the way For sorrows of a riper day. Oh! could a father's prayer repel The eye's sad grijf, the bosom's swell! Or could a father hope to bear A darling child's allotted care--Then thou, my babe, should'st slumber still, Exempted from all human ill; A parent's love thy peace should free, And ask its wounds again for thee. Sleep on, my child, thy slumber brief Too soon shall melt away to grief--Too soon the dawn...
