James Whitcomb Riley (Джеймс Уиткомб Райли)

Lawyer and Child

How large was Alexander, father,
       That parties designate
The historic gentleman as rather
       Inordinately great?

Why, son, to speak with conscientious
       Regard for history,
Waiving all claims, of course, to heights pretentious,—
       About the size of me.

1. When Age Comes on

3. My Fiddle

5. A Barefoot Boy
