"TALKED ABOUT

The neigh ors talked about her nearly
everywhere they met;
They talked about her till she died; they
talk about her yet.
The high and low all spoke of her rs did
the old and young,
Aud every gossip tossed her name upon
her nimble tongue
Twas she who kissed the baby first and
blest its happy birth;
Twas she who helped to guide its feet
through all the paths of earth;
Twas she who watched beside the bed
whereon the dying lay,
Twas she who so0thed the stricken
friends when one was called away.
The neighbors talked about her nearly
everywhere they met;
They talked about her till she died; they
talk about her yet.
They talked about her wondrous hands
her heart so full of love,
Aud now the angels talk of her who
dwclls with them above.
