A CHILD'S TROUBLES. 
I wish I knew my letters well, 
So I might learn to read and spell; 
I'd find them on my pretty card, 
If they were not so very hard.
"Now S is crooked - don't you see? 
And G is making mouths at me, 
And O is something like a ball, -
It hasn't any end at all. 
And all the rest are - my! so queer! 
They look like crooked sticks - oh, dear! 
Ma counted six, and twenty more; 
What do they have so many for? 
From St. Nicholas
