Miss Constance Kimball:
Eighty-six years Of light and shade
On thy brow have left their trace,
But within thy sunny heart
Discomfort has found no place. ID

In thy lite have played their part,
But their mingled power weak
To repress thy buoyant heart. I
Busy hands and brain which plans
Ever for unselfsh ends
