SISTER OF MERCY, by MARY HELEN PAGE First Line: Tranquil her gaze, and mild Last Line: Gentle her hands. | |||
Tranquil her gaze, and mild, Unruffled as a child, Gentle her hands. Mercy her hands bestow, Firm is her voice, and low, Love sets her face aglow, Gentle her hands. Constant her precepts are, Unyielding as a star, Steadfast she stands, Her vision fixed afar, Gentle her hands. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ARIEL'S SONG (1) [OR, DIRGE] [OR, A SEA DIRGE].
