MIZPAH (MESSAGE FOR ABSENT FRIENDS): 1 by FRANCES RIDLEY HAVERGAL

First Line: ONLY A LEAF, YET IT SHALL BEAR
Last Line: WHAT BLESSINGS FROM THAT PRAYER MAY FLOW.
Subject(s): BIRTHDAYS;
ONLY a leaf, yet it shall bear
A wealth of love, of mintage true!
Only a simple, earnest prayer,
That silently goes up for you;
Yet you and I may never know
What blessings from that prayer may flow.
