Religion
Crowned!
From Niagara, and Other Poems (1904)
Religion
With peaceful brow, and eyes beneath
Disclosing memories, tender, dear,
And hopes secure from earthly strife,
She stands—good angels know how near
To heaven,—crown’d with the harvest-wreath
Of a fair, fruitful life:—
A lovelier diadem, I ween,
On seraph brow was never seen.
