Ives, Sarah Noble, 1864-1944 · New York : R.H. Russell · leaf 16
SING ho! for the road thatopens downOut of the sleepy old Baby Town.Sing ho! for the joy of the Shining Way, For Dorothy took her first steps to-day. Mother has helped her alone to stand,And now she is holding her dimpled hand,And now theres a start and a tipsy run,And life on the road is well… … Theres a tear in the midst of Mothers smiles,Hut Mother will lead her the first few miles.So let her start on her journey gay.Sing ho! for the joy of the Shining Way. 14
