And drape your form In silk and iact. .
When others call you dear ian ana vour face
You'll not forget that far above
All others Is a mothers love

In your new home beyond tne sea-
When at your lips are baby HANDS.
O then. AS at your side they grow.
How have loved you you VIII KNOW
When YOU must feel loves heavy Ioss'
You will remember other years
When l. too. bent beneath the cross,
And mix my memoir vita thy tears,
In such dark hours be not afraid,
Within their shadow have prayed
Your DAUGHTERS Voice or smile, or eyes,
Nv face viii suddenly recall;
Then you will smile in sweet SURPRISE

Which at evening used TO SNARE

A link between us strong and sweet
