THE LOVE AND PROTECTION OF MOTHER AND FATHER, by                    
First Line: "hope of my heart, in thy cradle reposing"
Last Line: To sing thee to sleep counts nothing too wearing


Hope of my heart, in thy cradle reposing,
Spare her who bore thee and brought thee to life;
Tired out and weary she sits by thy cradle,
To sing thee to sleep counts nothing too wearing.
