Inscription
Emily Weed Barnes
1
As children wearied with their play,
turn from their toys and long for rest,
fly to a mother’s arms away,
and fall asleep upon her breast.
2
Thus, Tawasantha, will my soul,
aside its earthly playthings cast.
Thus, will it own thy soft control,
and slumber sweetly here at last.
Sunset, Sep’t 8 1848. Emily P. Weed.
