The other father had a weaklier child,

Of a soft cheek, and aspect delicate;136

But the boy bore up long, and with a mild

Little he said, and now and then he smiled,

As if to win a part from off the weight

He saw increasing on his father's heart,

With the deep deadly thought, that they must part.
