Well; let me bless thee, ere I sleep,

And give thee all my joys to keep.

XXVIII.

I bless the house where thou wast born,

I bless the hours of every night,

And every hour from flush of morn

Till death of day, for thy delight;

I bless the sunbeams as they shine,—

So like those golden locks of thine.
