Thy little daughter smileth, Thy son is fair to see, And from its cradle shouts the babe, In health and jollity: But still thy brow is shaded, The fresh tear trickleth free, Where is thy first born darling? Oh, mother, where is she? And if she be in heaven, She, who with goodness fraught, So early on her Father God Repos'd her bursting thought:
And since the dream was doubl'd to the king, It is because God hath decreed the thing, And on this land the same will shortly bring: Now therefore if I may the king advise, Let him look out a man discreet and wise, And make him overseer of the land: And substitute men under his command To gather a fifth part for public use, Of what the seven plenteous years produce; And in the cities lay it up for store, Against the famine in the land grows sore; And let it be repos'd in Pharaoh's hand, That so the famine may not waste the land.
Here, Nephew, I resign that Trust, which was repos'd in me by your dead Father; which was, that on your Wedding-Day I should thus make you Master of your whole Fortune, you being married to my liking And now, Charles, and you, my Niece Phillis, you may demand your Portions to morrow, if you please, for he is oblig'd to pay you the Day after that of his Marriage. Phil. There's time enough, my Lord.
