We know not when : ' et 1 am sure Tliat souls like thine Bring with them that which shall endure, And I divine That the whole world, more tender, wise, Catching the look in thy great eyes, Draws near to God. We hear the line, Faint music of the chariot wheels As we peer upward ; who but feels Through human, the divine? I see her now ! Prayer on her lips doth move : Children are at her feet ; she seems to rise More womanly than woman, with the love Which is her woman ' s glory, in her eyes. And on her brow faith, like an aureole. In the world ' s heart, held dearly as its soul: Held tenderly, as any mother holds Her year-old baby, white, with ruddy lips. On which the first, sweet utterance trips ; Or as a wee bird, which the hand enfolds, Grimy and small, that found it in the grass. And trembling owns it, half afraid to pass. And half afraid to hold so strange a thing. Lest haply (world ' s delight !) the bird should sing ! Oh! as we treasure ringlets, ringlets which the years Have dulled, or letters full of tears, So the world holds all reverently apart The flower of perfect girlhood to its heart; And with such care and beauty and delight, She held the flower of girlhood on her breast; She turned the face of girlhood to the light, That so the sun might ripen fruitage blest. And, by the growth of something wise and good, Persuade the world of perfect womanhood. As mute as yon bird, by the window-sill (A golden roundelay, and all is still), So ends her life ' s unbroken harmony In stillness, and the rest for which men long ; So to her life shall death ' s pure radiance be The dew of silence, in the flower of song.
