English Songs and Melodies: The Dangers, 1856. Sheet music: '...poetry by Charles Mackay, Air, "Castabella", the symphonies and accompaniment by Sir H. R. Bishop...0h, child! beware! The treacherous stream runs deep; The ice may glitter fair, Yet be too soft thy weight to bear. Stay, infant, stay! nor tempt the dangerous leap; For winter frost, as thou wilt find, Is often false as summer wind. Fond youth! beware! The glory in thine eyes, Or dream of love so fair, May fade, and leave thee to despair. Stay, young man, stay! be cautious and be wise; For love and glory lure astray, And scatter heart-aches on the way. Old age! beware! Why should thy heart grow cold? Earth has no sight less fair Than starveling Avarice and Care. Stay, old man, stay! nor hoard thine idle gold; For he who worships wealth alone Shall have his heart for burial-stone'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
