I should like to have been with Him then. I wish that His hands had been placed on my head, That His arms had been thrown That I might have seen His kind look when He said, "Let the little ones come unto Me." Dear little prince! You have beautiful eyes. Are you looking at the queen? Who gave you that apple? Was it the queen? Do little princes like apples? What a fine, rich dress you have! Do you like that rich dress? Why do you wear that cap? Do all little princes wear caps? Poor little man! You can not tell. You can not talk much. You are not old enough. By and by you will talk enough! Will you say kind words then? Good morrow to you, little prince! * See preface. Do you like the little spaniel? The spaniel likes you, little prince! By and by you will be a king. When you are a king, you will not be called "Baby." You will be called King James King James Second. Will you be a good king? Will you say kind words then? It is hard to tell! It is hard to be a good king. You will know that soon enough! Good bye, little James Second. Good bye, Baby Stuart, good bye! |
