15
THE SEED.
Bearing a life unseen,
Thou lingerest between
A flower withdrawn,
And—what thou ne'er shalt see—
A blossom yet to be
When thou art gone.
Thou lingerest between
A flower withdrawn,
And—what thou ne'er shalt see—
A blossom yet to be
When thou art gone.
Unto the feast of Spring
Thy broken heart shall bring
What most it craved,
To find, like Magdalen
In tears, a life again
Love-lost—and saved!
Thy broken heart shall bring
What most it craved,
To find, like Magdalen
In tears, a life again
Love-lost—and saved!
