“To bring up a child in the
slept when a boy!
What canopied king might not
covet the joy?
The glory and peace of that
slumber of mine,
Xjlke a long, gracious rest In
the bosom divine:
The quaint, homely couch, hid
den close from the light,
But daintily drawn from Its
hiding at night.
O a nest of delight, from the
foot to the head,
Was the queer little, dear
little, old trundle-bed.
O the old trundle-bed, where I
wondering saw
The stars through the window,
and listened with awe
To the sigh of the winds as they
tremblingly crept
Through the trees where the
robin so restlessly slept:
Where I heard the low, mur
murous chirp of the wren,
And the katydid listlessly
chirrup again.
Till my fancies grew faint and
were drowsily led
Through the maze of the
dreams of the old trundle-
bed.
O the old trundle bed! O the
old trundle-bed!
With Its plump little pillow,
and old fashioned spread;
Its snowy-white sheets, and the
blankets above,
Smoothed and placed round
with the touches of love;
The voice of my mother to lull
me to sleep
With the old fairy stories my
memories keep
Still fresh as the lilies the
bloom o’er the head
Once bowed o’er my own In the
old trundle-bed.
