SISTER OF MERCY, by MARY HELEN PAGE First Line: Tranquil her gaze, and mild Last Line: Gentle her hands. | |||
Tranquil her gaze, and mild, Unruffled as a child, Gentle her hands. Mercy her hands bestow, Firm is her voice, and low, Love sets her face aglow, Gentle her hands. Constant her precepts are, Unyielding as a star, Steadfast she stands, Her vision fixed afar, Gentle her hands. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...NOT TRANSHISTORICAL DEATH, OR AT LEAST NOT QUITE by HAYDEN CARRUTH POE'S COTTAGE AT FORDHAM by JOHN HENRY BONER ON THE NEW FORCES OF CONSCIENCE UNDER THE LONG PARLIAMENT by JOHN MILTON PEARLS OF THE FAITH: 26.
