HUSH, LITTLE GIRL, DON'T CRY! Copyright, 1889 by T. B. Harms & Co. By E. E. Rice. 
Hush, little girl, don't cry! you've broken your doll, I know; Tour tea-set, too, with its color of blue, are things of long ago. Dry little eyes and smile, as sunshine follows rain, Your childhood cares will soon pass by-hush, little girl, don't cry! And when you older grow, strong hearts you'll serve the same; Withered, they die for loss of love, but you'll not be to blame; For little dolls were made for children sport to make; And manly hearts too often seem for older ones to break. Hush, little girl, don't cry; you've broken your doll, I know; Your tea-set. too, with its color of blue, are things of long ago. Dry little eyes and smile, as sunshine follows rain. Your childhood cares will soon pass by-hush, little girl, don't cry!
