When first my lisping accents came, And called Father beloved, Who felt transport fill his frame, My Father Who taught my bosom to rejoice In God above who hears my voice, And make his ways my pleasant choice, My Mother.

Notes
Sarah Ann Tise was 10 years old when she worked this sampler. Ann Taylor first wrote 5 verses in this format in 1807. A later (1836) publication includes additional verses which are used in this sampler. Both verses were written by Ann Taylor for “My Mother. A Poem.” It was changed to “My Father” by the stitcher. Taylor, Ann (1782-1866). “My Mother. A Poem.” New York: Mahlon Day, pub.1836, p.4 (verse 1), p.6 (verse2). http://en.childrenslibrary.org/library/books/_/___mymo_00870155/___mymo_00870155.pdf This is a link to the 1807 poem. https://www.google.com/books/edition/My_Mother_A_poem_embellished_with_design/NoT2kbuwPjUC?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=Ann+Taylor+%22My+Mother.+A+Poem%22&pg=PP21&printsec=frontcover Ann Taylor’s sister, Jane, wrote Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.”
