Scope and contentPosed image of young girl sitting on her father's knee. She is trying to comfort him; he is overcome with grief. Over them an image of a young woman hovers. Text on card includes: "Why do your big tears fall, Daddy, / Mother's not far away, / I often seem to hear her voice / Falling across my play, / And it sometimes makes me cry, Daddy, / To think that it's none of it true, / Till I fall asleep to dream, Daddy, / Of home and Mother and you; / For I've got you, and you've got me, / So everything's seems right, / We're all the world to each other, Daddy / For Mother, dear Mother, once told me so."
