Nl W W 1 Pa ye Tmvrniy A NURSE A nurse, a simple nurse, to the unthinking, Only a nurse, and nothing but a name, A patient woman in her round of duty. Living and dying all unknown to fame. Only a nurse, a messenger of mercy, An angel sent unto our suffering race, XVith quiet step, and tender hand of healing, Diyinest pity on her gentle face. VVhen all the world lies wrapt in quiet slumber, Save the sufferer, moaning on his bed, VVhose watchful eye with love keeps vigil Through the long night with silent, softening tread? Only a nurse, in duty all unshrinking, Before such scenes manys stouter heart would quail, See there! that sweet. fair girl in sorest trial. Is at her post, nor will her courage fail. The fever we but terror-struck encounter, Or fly before, with selfish, coward dread, While nurse and doctor hasten to the rescue And stand unflinching by the stricken bed. Hai-k! that weird bell-an accident at midnight, The nurse and doctor wakeful, close at hand, The ministers to suffering or to dying, The hospital's heroic, little band. There you or I may, in our need find refuge, VVith kindly help, and loving, tender care, Let us respect these brave, unselfish women, And night and day remember them in prayer. -The Trained A7Ill'.Vt' and flospilal Re1.1i1 u'. June, 1928.
