"What beautiful children! Whose can they be?
Do stop those nurses and let us see!"
The beauty of each the ladies compare:
"This one is so lovely! do see how fair
Her little round face, so plump and sweet!
I must kiss the child though it is in the street."
"No,—her little cousin is prettier far;
I like a brunette; she will be a bright star."
The nurses move on, well pleased, I fear,
Such flattering remarks from the ladies to hear.
Had they seen these children in Water street,
In ragged garments and naked feet,
They would not have stopped them on the way,
And flattered them so, I think, to-day.

What a sight
They descry
When Trenton Falls
Meet their eye!
