THE BEST THING, There is many a sight it is good to see, And we gaze with an eager eye; But nothing has splendor one-half so fine As the light from a sunset sky. There's many an odor that's rare and sweet, Yet nothing, my heart allows, Is half so fragrant or half so pure As the smell of the cedar boughs, There's glad Many a dear refrain— many a sound that's strong and Yet nothing cau thrill like the notes that come From a bird that sings in the rain, There's many a thing in the world to love That the world can understand, And yot there's nothing that's balf so dear As the t i i uch of a baby's hand.
