Poem fragment reflects on a home devoid of a baby, describing cleanliness and absence of baby items, toys, and mess. The speaker laments missing infant sounds, clothing, and affectionate routines, noting the quiet, orderly room. The verse contrasts expected familial bustle with an empty nursery.
An old note quotes the Duke of Wellington praising a subordinate for rallying troops in northern Spain during a retreat. The anecdote recalls a moment when a soldier shouted that the man who knows how had arrived to steady the line and restore ground.
