LOVE ONE ANOTHER

A little girl with a happy look

Sat slowly reading a ponderous book

All bound with velvet and edged with gold,

And its weight was more than the child could hold;

Yet dearly she loved to ponder it o’er,

And every day she prized it more;

For it said—and she looked at her smiling mother—

It said, “Little children, love one another.”

She thought it was beautiful in the book,
