Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sonnets and Lyrics
To My Mother.
Spring's secret had her nature caught,
All joy compelling;
Her converse was with wisdom fraught,
And laughter welling.
The circle of her daily life
Was sweetly human;
As friend, as mother, and as wife,
She was all woman.
With these rare charms she did combine
A Christ-like power;
Transfused with His dear grace divine,
Love was her dower.
