THE AGNITA 3 n (Memavwm SISTER MARIE EDWARD Died March 12, 1936 Requiescat in Pace.” There dawned for her a blissful day. When she to Christ did look and say: Dear Jesus, make me Thine Own bride, Worldly joys I cast aside!” Radiant smiled the King of Kings Enwrapped with joy her whole heart sings, He whisperd low: “Thou art my spouse, Accepted all thy virgin vows!” Sweet was her lot for Him to toil, Young hearts and souls the precious soil Where seeds of virtue patient sown Might make His Love the better known. Then would she turn from anxious care His Sacramental Watch to share,- Oft in the convent chapel sweet Her Lord and Hidden Lover meet. Ah now, the last dear task is done, Life’s victory long since fought and won, Sharing her Lord’s Gethsemane She died with Him on Calvary. Angels treasured her last sweet sigh And bore her soul to Christ on high Home at last is His Own loved bride To keep Eternal Eastertide! 9
