A birthday wish : many happy returns of the day, many happy returns to thee, and when heaven to earth its blessings send, may yours a large share be : may many a day of pleasure come, and thy life be devoid of care, and wherever you may chance to be may you still find happiness there : again and again I wise thee well, with more of truth than this can tell
