The School Boy

he school boy in the poem is not a happy child. What make im unhappy? Why does he compare himself to a bird that live a cage, or a plant that withers when it should blossom.

I love to rise in a summer morn,

When the birds sing on every tree;

The distant huntsman winds his horn,

And the skylark sings with me.

O! what sweet company.

But to go to school in a summer morn,

O! it drives all joy away:

Under a cruel eye outworn.

The little ones spend the day,

In sighing and dismay .

All! then at times I drooping sit.

And spend many an anxious homr.

Nor in why hook (inl lake delight.

Nor sit in learnings bower.

Worth theo with lhe dreary shower

How ("ill 1 le bind thit is horn for joy.

Sit in il Cage anlu sings.

How CaIt at Child whell leats atllloy.

Hut drouphis ternderwing.

And forget his volullulutspring.
