The woman whom my spirit-vision sees;
By thoughts of her I feel my strength increased.
What is this picture’s purpose? Why doth it
Hold my attention spellbound? Certainly
No sympathy from out the picture’s self
Accounts for this, for, should I see the scene
In earthly life, I should consider it
Of no importance. What saith it to me?
