GRAVE
While the doctor he was reading,
After making up a bill,
The phone it started ringing
With a message that one was ill.
IIo put aside his paper
And answered to the call,
For it was from a neighbor,
He told hie wife, when he did leave
the hall.
There on his arrival
On that dismal night, .
Laid out in white apparel
Just like an angel bright.
A woman of twenty summers .
Was lying between life and death,
While the lamplight with its glimmers
She laid with abated breath.
For she knew would soon be over,
And that the doctor he could save,
A little offspring'neath the cover
From a small and lonely grave.
The doctor tender hearted,
Tried to soothe her aching head,
Telling her not to be disheartened,
For she was long from being dead.
That he would call on the 'morrow
.And all would be alright,
Told her not from trouble borrow
And he bid her then goodnight.
All night the husband sat watching
Close byhis wife's bedside,
Before daylight was breaking
His little child bad died.
