Religion
To My Sister: III
From The poetical works of George MacDonald in two volumes — Volume 1
Religion
Be then thy sacred womanhood
A sign upon thee set,
A second baptism--understood--
For what thou must be yet.
For, cause and end of all thy strife,
And unrest as thou art,
Still stings thee to a higher life
The Father at thy heart.
