Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from America, and Other Poems
And chosen for the symbol a young girl, At that sweet age when woman's just matured And yet keeps Childhood's happy innocence. Half draped and half revealed, with calm, pure face, Gentle and modest looking down to earth, She seems to say, I bend toward earthly things, Being of heaven.
