She as her heavy June brought down | L |
Night deeps of hair thy brow to crown | L |
A voice so mild and musical | M |

Stamped like a jewel that should start | O |
From thy pure face in smiles and break | P |
Like radiance when it laughed or spake | P |
Affection that is born of truth | Q |
And goodness which make very youth | Q |
