Show My Penance. The Spirit breathed in Mary's upturned face The breath of life upon the life t grace! The Spirit blowcth where it listeth; far Beyond the mus'e of life's singing oar, Whence IHiv swept out on Love's unfettered un-fettered wings And Love sings Lnw. and Law Ivovc's anthem sings. The Spirit breathed in Mary's upturned face Among the shining pinnacles that trace God's constellated glories; for so fair, So pure a star had never risen there Since God had breathed in Adam's fac:, and set U blazing In Creation's coronet. The Spirit breathed in Mary's upturned face O nvracle of power and power of grace! Within, the lily breathed Love's blood-red blood-red roFe And wrapped the Virgin In a mother', throex. Which budded forth the Saviour, undefined un-defined And Law and Iove stooped o'er the brim and smiled! Jessie Willis Rroadhead. |
