The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1902-05-15

A kind OF heavenly destiny;
liked the greeting; twas sound
OF something without place or bound;
And seemed TO give me spiritual right
To travel through that region bright.
The voice was soft, and she who spake,
Was walking by her native lake;
! The salutation had to me
The very sound of courtesy:
Its power was felt; and while my eye
Was fixed upon the glowing sky.
The echo of the voice unwrought
a human sweetness with the thought
OF travelling through the world that lay
Before me in my endless way.
