GOOD-NIGHT.

Reading edition

BY W. T. PETERS.

Good-night, happy stars, With your yellow eyes; Good-night, lady moon, In the evening skies; Good-night, dusky world And the boundless deep; I am tired out; It is time to sleep— Time, time to sleep. Good-night! Good-night! Good-night, weary boy; It has been decreed That some mysteries Only a child can read; But the sweet child-heart May you always keep, And the stars will be yours, And the boundless deep— The boundless, boundless deep. Good-night! Good-night!
