Answer:

The speaker's perspective is that of a loving father, happy to entertain and play around with her daughters. He expressed his caring and endless love for them throughout the whole poem.

Explanation:

The poem "The Children's Hour" is written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow about a father and his daughters' relationship. The poem presents a caring and deeply emotional love a father has for his daughters.

The speaker in the poem is an unnamed man, probably the father of the three girls. He comments about himself as "an old mustache as I am." But through his reaction to his daughters bursting into his room, suggests he is a loving father. This can be inferred from the lines that express his feelings for his daughters-

"voices soft and sweet"

"They almost devour me with kisses"

"And there will I keep you forever".

These three lines from the poem are evidence of the father's/ speaker's love for the three little girls- Alice, Allegra, and Edith.
