MARCH 13th: RACHEL'S HEART
"When God smote His hands together, and struck out the soul at a spark,
Into the organized glory of things, from drops of the dark,—
Say, didst thou shine, didst thou burn, didst thou honour the power in the form,
As the star does at night, or the fire-fly, or even the little ground-worm?
'I have sinned,' she said."
Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
