The Pilgrimage TO KssMaar.

/.
At the window stood the mother,
In bed the sick son lay;
Viii you not get up, William.
And see them marching away?"
Il am so i'll, o mother,
That l cannot hear or see;
| think of my dead Gretchen
And my heart is broken in me-"
Get Up we will to Kevlaar,
Take missal and rosario;
The mother of God our Savior
VIII heal thy heart for thee"
They wave the broad church-banners,
They chant the holy song;
And through Cologne on the Rhine-stream,
The procession draws along.
The mother follows the pilgrims,
And her sick son leadeth she;
And their voices join in the chorale:
Blessed be thou, Mariel"

The mother Of God of Kevlaar
To-day wears her richest dress;
To-day she will be right busy.
Such numbers come in distress.
And all the poor sick people
Bring with them offerings meet;
They are little waxen figures,
Many waxen hands andrfeet.
And who a wax hand offers,
His hands wound hurts nc more;
And who a wax foot offers,
His foot is healed Of its sore.
To Kevelaar went many on crutches,
Who now can dance all night;
And many now play on the VOL
Whose fingers were helpless quite.
The mother took a w~ax-light,
And thereof shaped a heart:
Take that to our dear Lords mother,
And she will cure thy smart"
signing he took the wax heart
And knelt to the holy form;
The tears from his eyes outStreaming,
And the words from his heart blood-warm
Thou blessed among women,
Gods Virgin pure from faint,
Thou queen OF the highest heaven,
- rs l DAHlS my paint!
i lived with my dear mother
In the city Of Cologne
The city of many hundreds
OF churches and chapels known.
And next to US lived Gretchen,
She lived, she lives not now:
Marie. / bring thee a wax heart,
My bleeding heart heal thou!
Heal thou my heart sore wounded,
And early and late to thee
VIII l sing and pray with f~ervor,
Blessed be thou, Marie!
The sick son and his mother
Were sleeping safe from i'll,
When 10, the mother of Jesus
Came gliding in SO still.
She bent down over the sick one,
Arid softly laid her hand
Upon his heart! then vanished,
Smiling sweet and bland.
The mother saw all in her dreaming,
And fain had seen yet more;
But she was reused from slumber,
The dogs made such uproar.
There lay outstretched beside her
Ter son, and he was dead;
On the pall'd features sparkled
The light of the morning red.
The mother folded her hands then,
She felt so wistfully;
Devoutly sang she softly:
Blessed be thou, Marie!
