Excerpt from book: My heart leaps up when I behold A Rainbow in the sky: So was it when my life began; So is it now I am a Man; So be it when I shall grow old, Or let me die The Child is Father of the Mau; And I could wish my days to he Bound each to each by natural piety. TO A BUTTERFLY. Stay near me?do not take thy flight A little longer stay in sight Much converse do I find in Thee, Historian of my Infancy Float near me; do not yet depart Dead times revive in thee: Thou bring'st, gay Creature as thou art A solemn image to my heart, My Father's Family Oh pleasant, pleasant were the days, The time, when in our childish plays, My Sister Einmelme and I Together chased the Butterfly A very hunter did I rush Upon the prey: ?with leaps and springs I followed on from brake to bush; But She, God love her feared to brush The dust from off its wings. chapter{{Section 4III. FORESIGHT, Or the Charge of a Child to his younger Companion. That is work of waste and ruin? Do as Charles and I are doing Strawberry-blossoms, one and all, We must spare them?here are many: Look at it?the Flower is small, Small and low, though fair as any: Do not touch it summers two I am older, Anne, than you. Pull the Primrose, Sister Anne Pull as many as you can. ?Here are Daisies, take your fill; Pansies, and the Cuckow-flower: Of the lofty Daffodil Make your bed, and make your bower; Fill your lap, and fill your bosom; Only spare the Strawberry-blossom Primroses, the Spring may love them? Summer knows but little of them: Violets, a barren kind, Withered on the ground must lie; Daisies leave no fruit behind When the pretty flowerets die; Pluck them, and another year As many will be blowing here. God has given a kindlier power..
