SONGS FOR CHILDHOOD.
73
"Now why shouldst thou hinder the Master,* Said Peter, " with children like these ?
Seest not how from morning to evening F teacheth and healeth disease ?"
Theu Christ said, " Forbid not the children, Permit them to come unto me!"
And he took in his arms little Esther, And Rachel he set on his knee;
And the heavy heart of the mother Was lifted all earth-care above,
As he laid his hand on the brothers, And blessed them with tenderest love i
As he said of the babes in his bosom.
"Of such is the kingdom of heaven." And strength for all duty and trial
That hour to her spirit was given.
