The only boy 'mid a dozen ribs
la a lways n very king—
Indulged andipetted, hi s w ill
And he rules everything;
For his father and mother, With loving acs,
Glance over each cherished one, •
The voile of affection sweetest rests
Oa tho-darlinp only son.
Ab! wee t o the innocent helpless
'Neith annals . &other's sway
He's always spoiling their funny plans , •
In the most provoking way ;
Being:teas they search for their hidden toss
And thinks it capital fun—
Ah ! 'raid the tnisebieaus race of boys,
There's none like an, only eon !
They most boscontent with tho poorest
thiv, .
Without a word or sigh, .
I.or he always claims the sweetest cakes,
And the iargesi piece of pie. . -
They must always bear with a patient glace
The mischief he has done,
For an adept lit rogeery and praulfttlness
le the petted only son.
~_ •
Ile throws their playthings in the fire, - y •
And laughs to see Them burn ;
Ile pots the cat in his father's boots,
And the dog in his mother's churn.
Gut his mischief meets with approving
lodes,
M'ben 'tis (sued by whom tis done,
For shot could be blamed its another child;
