Maul) 1G. 
V ALE RI AX. — Good Disposition. 
Thy beauty of spirit 
Is a pure, priceless boon; 
Mere external loveliness 
Fades all too soon. 
For this do I love thee, 
My truest and best; 
For this I ’ve enshrined thee, 
Close, close in my breast. 
E R. H. 
Maul) 17 
SORREL. — Parental Affection. 
Our babes shall richest comforts bring; 
As we shall live, they ’ll prove a spring 
Whence pleasures ever rise. 
We ’ll form their minds, with studious care, 
To all that’s manly, good, and fair, 
And train them for the skies. 
They ’ll grow in virtue every day, 
They will our fondest loves repay, 
And bless our happy eyes.
