LILIES OF THE VALLEY, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Bells of a music softly spoken
Last Line: Pray, o pray!
Subject(s): Flowers; Lilies


Bells of a music softly spoken,
Valley music hushed in the air,
Purity-white is its theme and token,
Fair, O fair!

Cups of a fragrance freely healing,
Cups turned downward but full for aye,
Purity-sacrament, -- souls a-kneeling,
Pray, O pray!
