Strana 39 - THE NORTH WIND DOTH BLOW he north wind doth blow, And we shall have snow, And what will poor Robin do then, Poor thing? He'll sit in a barn, And keep himself warm, And hide his head under his wing, Poor thing.
Strana 33 - Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep ; If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take ; And this I ask for Jesus
Strana 75 - I like little Pussy, Her coat is so warm; And if I don't hurt her She'll do me no harm. So I'll not pull her tail, Nor drive her away, But Pussy and I Very gently will play...
Strana 25 - Christian mothers teach their young children short prayers like the following : This night when I lie down to sleep, I give the Lord my soul to keep ; If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take. Now I wake and see the light ; God has kept me through the night ; Make me good, O Lord, I pray ; Keep and guard me through this day. When Christian worship like the above is compared with Hindu customs, it must be seen to be preferable. " As is the god, so is the worshipper.
Strana 80 - THOU wak'st from happy sleep to play With bounding heart, my boy ! Before thee lies a long bright day Of summer and of joy. Thou hast no heavy thought or dream To cloud thy fearless eye ; — Long be it thus — life's early stream Should still reflect the sky.
Strana 46 - Two legs and two ancles, two knees and two hips : His fingers and toes have all nails on their tips. With his hands and his feet he can run, walk, or crawl, He can dance, jump, and caper, or play with his ball : Take his hoop or his cart, and have a good race, And that will soon give him a fine rosy face. Oh ! what would my boy do without his two hands ? Or the two little feet upon which he now stands? They're the kind gifts of God for him to enjoy, Then be thankful to Him my dear little boy.
Strana 71 - HOP, hop, hop ! Go and never stop ; Where 'tis smooth, and where 'tis stony, Trudge along, my little pony, Go and never stop, Hop, hop, hop, hop, hop ! Hey, hey, hey ! Go along, I say ; Don't you kick, and don't you stumble, Don't you tire, and don't you grumble ; Go along, I say ; Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey ! Jump, jump, jump ! Don't you hit that stump ! For I -will not cease to ride you, Till I further yet have tried you ; Don't you hit that stump, Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump ! Tramp, tramp, tramp...
Strana 52 - ... we have to earn our bread by the sweat of our brow, but because our moral nature is such that we are unable to be idle and at peace.
