To learn as many modern girls
She did not have the chance.
But loved to watch her fathers floeks

And make boquets for little friends.
Would FIJI her youthful mind.
But visions of her great renown.
To her were all unknown.
And how the millions yet unborn,
Would claim her as their own.
Her kind and sympathetic heart,
Was often filled with grief;
She dearly loved her native land.
And longed to give relief.
Thus, very early in her teens.
With faith that God would aid.
She made vow to crush the foe,
And all her plans were laid.
