So full of meaning, pure and bright As if she yet stood in the light Of those oped gates of Paradise. And so we loved her more and more; Ah, never in our hearts before Was love so lovely born. We felt we had a link between This real world and that unseen, — The land beyond the morn.
Página 352 - My child, thy sleep adorning, For I know that the angels are whispering with thee. " And while they are keeping Bright watch o'er thy sleeping, Oh, pray to them softly, my baby, with me ! And say thou wouldst rather They'd watch o'er thy father, For I know that the angels are whispering to thee.
