WIDOWHOOD by MARY ELIZABETH B. CROUSE

First Line: NOW IS SHE CROWNED WITH PERFECTNESS AT LAST
Last Line: SHE LABORS, KNOWING THAT HEAVEN HATH HER LIFE.
Subject(s): LABOR & LABORERS; LIFE; WIDOWS & WIDOWERS; WORK; WORKERS;
Now is she crowned with perfectness at last.
She bends her head no more — the soul hath passed
That is a part of hers. Still in earth's strife
She labors, knowing that Heaven hath her life.
