Not amid the battles din,
Not within the halls Of fashion
Reigns affections heroine.
Sits she in her quiet beauty
Where the homeward sunbeams play
Simply doing all her duty
Day by day.
Ceaseless toll her spirits cumber,
Ceaseless vigiIs tax her strength,
TRIES, weghty from their number,
Prove weary load at length;
Little sobs for her to smother,
Little griefs for her to share,
Little voices lisping Mother"
Claim her care.
Patient through lifes darkest hours,
Smiling though the heart be tried
Man, with all his boosted powers,
Cannot thus bis sorrows hide
Giving all kindly greeting,
Soothing each caprcious will,
Hearing oft, yet ns'er repeating
Aught of i'll.
Bound by customs ancient letters
To obey nor reason why;
Watched by those who watch their bette,s
With a gossip's tireless eye:
Moves she still in quiet beauty,
Calmly ON her chosen way,
Simply doing all her duty
Day by day.
