The Baby's Star
From Child Verse (1900)
Relationships
The Star that watched you in your sleep
Has just put out his light.
"Good-day, to you on earth," he said,
"Is here in heaven Good-night.
"But tell the Baby when he wakes
To watch for my return;
For I'll hang out my lamp again
When his begins to burn."
