Have a little read: ... "The Song of the Old Mother" is a poem set in the Victorian era. In those days working was expected more. From young ages children had to go out to work, so the mother expects help with housework from her daughters if she has any, and her sons to go out to work if she has any. The mother seems to want her child/children to have an easier life than she had. "And the young lie long and dream in their beds" implies that she is happy to let them be the "next generation" and have life easier, as is usually the case. The mother would have had a harder life than her daughter because her mother would have had an even stricter upbringing and it would have influenced the way she was brought up. The poem is monotonous; this implies that the mother does not feel happy
