I've treasured ii long as sainted

I've believed IL with tears. I've EN-

Tis hound 10y thousand bands to my

Not a tie win break, not link will

Would YOU know the spell--a mother

And a sacred Thing is that old arm
chair.
IN childhood's hour fingered near
The hallowed seat with listening car;
And gentle words that mother would
give
To hit me to die and teach me to live.
She told me that shame would never
betide,
With truth for my creed, and Gcd for
my guide;
She taught me To lisp my earliest
prayer.
AS knelt beside that old armchair.
When her eyes grew dim. and her
locks were gray.
And almost worshipped her when she
smiled,
And turned from her Bible to bless her
