Jean Ingelow Quote

To bear, to nurse, to rear,
To watch and then to lose,
To see my bright ones disappear,
Drawn up like morning dews.

To bear, to nurse, to rear, To watch and then to lose, To see my bright ones disappear, Drawn up like morning dews.

To bear, to nurse, to rear, To watch and then to lose, To see my bright ones disappear, Drawn up like morning dews.

To bear, to nurse, to rear, To watch and then to lose, To see my bright ones disappear, Drawn up like morning dews.

To bear, to nurse, to rear, To watch and then to lose, To see my bright ones disappear, Drawn up like morning dews.
