Show A SONET BY ismoi Among the many beautiful thoughts suggested to st Joseph's parlfchotiers during the week of the mission, perhaps per-haps none has f .und more fitting fx-predion fx-predion than the following sonnet by MUs GenevleNO -Malone of Sacred Heart Academy. Beneath the Mission Cross. TIs dusk; the golden glimmering light of day Through shadows Is fast fading from nun's sight, The church Is dark, but for the flick- f ring light ! That fecMv radiates lt crimson ray And brightens as t'would silent homage hom-age pay The shroud and cross that fervent love invite. Its soft glow lingers through the dreary night And gleams as bright through morning morn-ing mists all gray. Shall we in coldness rrurlfy aenin That loving God and deeper pierce the heart That burns to save from sin each orr lng one? Or, in repenteiiie, Ma-gdaline-llke restrain re-strain Temptation's graspins arms and love Impart I nto that cros whence God will say "Well done?" GENEVIEVE MALONE. '12. Sacred Heart Academy. |
