The Family Distressed occasioned by the Loss of a Child. Two happy Parents returning from their morning with their elder children, anticipate the warm kiss of their youngest infant_he does not run out to meet them as usual...ah! Ye unhappy hearts, what a painful fluctuation of hopes and fears! Affliction d’une Famille qui a Perdu un de ses Enfans. Des Parens fortunés par les prétieux gages du noeud qui les unit, reviennent de la promenade du matin avex les ainés de leur famille_leur tender coeur s’ouvre d’avance aux vives caresses du plus jeune enfant qu’ils ont laissé au logis_hélas! Ils ne le voyent point, comme á son ordinaire, accourir á leur rencontre...oh! Quel pénible combat d’esperances et de craintes, déchire ces coeurs infortunes! [&] The Family’s Happiness restored by their Childs return. Joy! Joy! He is found! He is found! Tears once more deluge their cheeks, but they are tears of rapture; every eye lightens with gladness...cast thyself into the longing arms of thy brother and sister, and make them feel how sweet, how heavenly sweet is the union of affectionate hearts. Ioie de la Famille en Retrouvant L’Enfant qui s’etoit Perdu. Joie! Joie! _ le voice! Il est retrouvé! Oui il est retrouvé! Des larmes, mais des larmes de délices inondent leurs visages_quel ravissement brille dans tous les yeux!...voilá ton frère, et ta soeur vole dans leurs bras, pour y gouter les douceurs celestes reserves a une vive et veritable affection.
