BALLADS FOR LITTLE FOLK BY ALICE CARY. LITTLE CHILDREN. Blessings, blessings on white pillows softly bear, Rows of little shining headsThat have never known a care. Pity for the heart that bleedsIn the homestead desolate Where no little troubling needsMake the weary working wait. Safely, safely to the fold Bring them wheresoeer they be,Thou, who saidst of them, of old, Suffer them to come to me.
