PERIWINKLE by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: PERIWINKLE, MAGDALEN
Last Line: IN EACH CHALICE-BLOOM.
Subject(s): PERIWINKLE;
Periwinkle Magdalen,
Ever near the tomb,
Weeps her hidden Lord again
'Mid the twilight gloom,

Till the wonder of surprise
Clears her overclouded eyes,
And the Resurrection lies
In each chalice-bloom.
