Sister Frances is sad,
Because Henry is ill;
And she lets the dear lad
Do whatever he will.

Left her own little chair,
And got up in a minute,
When she heard him declare
That he wish'd to sit in it.

Now, from this we can tell,
He will never more tease her;
But, when he is well,
He will study to please her.

The giddy Girl.

Miss Helen was always too giddy to heed
What her mother had told her to shun;
For frequently, over the street in full speed,
She would cross where the carriages run.
