Let dogs delight to bark and bite,
Man’s fall has made them so;
Let bears and lions growl and fight,
For ’tis their nature to.
Birds in their little nests agree,
But ’tis a shameful sight,
When children of one family fall out,
And chide, and fight.
Perhaps we may add these lines:
Let little ones who love the Lord,
From morning until night,
Delight to do the Saviour’s will,
And never quarrel or fight.
