SONGS OF A LIFE-TIME
MRS. SARAH T. BOLTON'S POEMS
Songs of a Life-Time—with the Singer's headA silvery glory shining midst the green
Of laurel-leaves that bind a brow serene.
And godlike as was ever garlanded.—
So seems her glory who herein has wed
Melodious Beauty to the strong of mien
And kingly Speech—made kinglier by this queen
In lilied cadence voiced and raimented.
Songs of a Life-Time: by your own sweet stress
Of singing were ye loved of bygone years—
As through our day ye are, and shall be hence,
Till fame divine marks your melodiousness
And on the Singer's lips, with smiles and tears,
Seals there the kiss of love and reverence.
