Nature
For a Memorial Window to Sir Walter Raleigh, Set Up in St. Margaret's, Westminster, by American Contributors
From Heartsease and Rue
Nature
The New World's sons, from England's breasts we drew
Such milk as bids remember whence we came;
Proud of her Past, wherefrom our Present grew,
This window we inscribe with Raleigh's name.
