To dearest Mama on her birthday

 

My dear Mama I hail thee now

Upon thy birthdays happy hour

May blessing never cease to flow

From Gods high hand & heavenly power

Accept thy childs most humble lay

Though it should be an effort small

To show the love he has for thee

Upon thy head may blessings fall

Edward Barrett
