Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Reign of the Prince of Peace My Mother Thou! from whose lips the first I learned to know Jehovah Christ His Blessings would bestow Upon this Earth, when He came back to Reign; The even now, with fifty years between, To my mind´s eye the picture still is seen - Of That Sweet Tender One oppressed by pain, Her arms around Son´s neck - the gentle tone, The Mother tone - the sweetest ever known To hearing of the ears - (to hear it now - The fingers frail, to linger on the brow With such a touch), aye, was she then aware Her fingers ne´er again stray in boy´s hair - The eyes of love as hunger for boy´s face - The Mother and the Son in close embrace - And her words falling as reviving rain To stunted sapling - (never heard again:) "When thou wert young all gazers said, ´How frail, He ne´er can weather life´s incessant gale, His bark will founder e´er the ocean reach, And tho I loved thee, I did not beseech Thy Life of Him if thou would go astray When manhood crowned; and this my wish to-day. As thou wert as it were given from the grave, (Where oft´ I thought the daisied grass would blow O´er a wee mound but Mother heart would know,) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
