The Lullaby, with Original Engravings

A gentle collection of songs, poems, and hymns created for young listeners, this book moves through the quiet pleasures of childhood and the natural world. Babies drift toward sleep beneath twilight stars, while robins, yellow birds, lambs, chickens, and friendly garden visitors fill the verses with warmth and playful detail.

Seasonal poems celebrate falling snow, spring blossoms, cool brooks, and the small wonders found outdoors. Alongside these observations are tender prayers asking for protection, goodness, and peaceful rest, giving the collection a comforting spiritual heart. The simple rhymes and repeated lullaby refrains are well suited to reading aloud, bedtime listening, or sharing with children who enjoy stories in verse. Imagined together with its original engravings, these poems offer a softly nostalgic journey through birdsong, flowers, family affection, and faith.
