man:
Yet in herself she dwclIeth not.
Although no home were half 50 fair,
No simplest dut$ Is forgot,
Life had no dinr and lowiy spot
That doth not IN her sunshine share
She docth little kiudncsscs

And givcth happness or peace,

She hath no scorn Of common thinSs.
And though she seem Of other birth,
Round Us her heart ent%inea ana

And patiently she folds her wings
To tread the humble path of earth.
