Hers was a lonely shadowed lot	A
Or so the unperceiving thought	B
Who looked no deeper than her face	C
Devoid of chiselled lines of grace	C
No farther than her humble grate	D
And wondered how she bore her fate	D
	-
Yet she was neither lone nor sad	E
So much of love her spirit had	E
She found an ever flowing spring	F
Of happiness in everything	F
	-
So near to her was Nature s heart	G
It seemed a very living part	G
Of her own self and bud and blade	H
And heat and cold and sun and shade	H
And dawn and sunset Spring and Fall	I
Held raptures for her one and all	I
The year s four changing seasons brought	B
To her own door what thousands sought	B
In wandering ways and did not find	J
Diversion and content of mind	J
	-
She loved the tasks that filled each day	K
Such menial duties but her way	K
Of looking at them lent a grace	C
To things the world deemed commonplace	C
	-
Obscure and without place or name	L
She gloried in another s fame	L
Poor plain and humble in her dress	M
She thrilled when beauty and success	M
And wealth passed by on pleasure bent	N
They made earth seem so opulent	O
Yet none of quicker sympathy	P
When need or sorrow came than she	P
And so she lived and so she died	Q
	-
She woke as from a dream How wide	Q
And wonderful the avenue	R
That stretched to her astonished view	R
And up the green ascending lawn	S
A palace caught the rays of dawn	S
Then suddenly the silence stirred	T
With one clear keynote of a bird	T
A thousand answered till ere long	U
The air was quivering bits of song	U
She rose and wandered forth in awe	V
Amazed and moved by all she saw	W
For like so many souls who go	X
	-
Away from earth she did not know	X
The cord was severed	T
Down the street	Y
With eager arms stretched forth to greet	Y
Came one she loved and mourned in youth	Z
Her mother followed then the truth	Z
Broke on her golden wave on wave	A2
Of knowledge infinite The grave	A2
The body and the earthly sphere	B2
Were gone Immortal life was here	C2
They led her through the Palace halls	D2
From gleaming mirrors on the walls	D2
She saw herself with radiant mien	E2
And robed in splendour like a queen	E2
While glory round about her shone	F2
All this Love murmured is your own	F2
And when she gazed with wondering eye	G2
And questioned whence and where and why	G2
Love answered thus All Heaven is made	H
By thoughts on earth your walls were laid	H
Year after year of purest gold	H2
The beauty of your mind behold	H2
In this fair palace ay and more	I2
Waits farther on so vast your store	I2
I was not worthy when I died	Q
To take my place here at your side	Q
I toiled through long and weary years	J2
From lower planes to these high spheres	J2
And through the love you sent from earth	K2
I have attained a second birth	K2
Oft when my erring soul would tire	L2
I felt the strength of your desire	L2
I heard you breathe my name in prayer	M2
And courage conquered weak despair	M2
Ah earth needs heaven but heaven indeed	N2
Of earth has just as great a need	N2
	-
Across the terrace with a bound	O2
There sped a lambkin with a hound	O2
Dumb comrades of the old earth land	P2
And fondled her caressing hand	P2
