Harriet Annie Wilkins White Poems
- 1. Only A Story
Let me tell you a story, dear,
Of someone I saw to-day,
Only a man with a pale worn face,
And auburn locks grown gray,
... - 2. Two Altars
"And Cain talked with Abel, his brother."
... - 3. The Wife's Watch
Sleep on, my darling, sleep on,
I am keeping watch by your side,
I have drawn in the curtains close,
And banished the world outside;
... - 4. Last Words Of Sir Henry Lawrence
"Let there be no fuss about me, bury me with my men."
... - 5. Victor Roy; A Masonic Poem
DEDICATED, BY PERMISSION, TO DANIEL SPRY, ESQ.
GRAND MASTER OF THE GRAND LODGE, A.F. & A.M. OF CANADA.
... - 6. Daybreak
Turn thy fair face to the breaking dawn,
Lily so white, that through all the dark,
Hast kept lone watch on the dewy lawn,
Deeming thy comrades grown cold and stark;
... - 7. Song Of Azael
I heard the voice of the Death Angel speak,
As slowly he pass'd me by,
And I saw him throw snow on the crimson cheek,
And darken the laughing eye.
