The Little Boy Lost

You have read the story ‘The Lost Child’. Now, read the poem by William Blake to listen to the words of a little boy who is lost.
Father, father, where are you going
O do not walk so fast.
Speak father, speak to your little boy
Or else I shall be lost,
The night was dark no father was there
The child was wet with dew.
The mire was deep and the child did weep
And away the vapour flew.

William Blake
