Of her own worth she ceased to dream,
For Christ's redemption was her theme.
Henceforth her ways were ordered right,
She "walked by faith, and not by sight;"
She read God's word, believed it true,
And strove to practise what she knew.
Her husband saw the mighty change,
And thought at first her humor strange;
Deemed his own worldly ways the best—
But soon his error stood confessed.
