And call up, as a fair beatitude,

The gracious vision of true womanhood,

That with pure purpose, and a gentle might,

Upheld and borne, as by the steed of white,

Pledged with her golden ring, goes nobly

forth

To trace her path of joy along the earth,—

And, as she moves, makes music, silver-shod

"With preparation of the peace" of God,

That holds the key-note of celestial cheer,
