TO THE MEMORY OF INEZ MILHOLLAND by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: FOLDED IN SILENT VEILS OF SLEEP
Last Line: ON THAT GREAT DAY!
Subject(s): MILHOLLAND, INEZ (1886-1916); BOISSEVAIN, INEZ MILHOLLAND;
Folded in silent veils of sleep,
You calmly rest,
For God hath spoken, should we weep?
He knoweth best.

But rather let us garner still
While yet we may,
And meet you in His Holy Hill
On that Great Day!
