MOTHER I’M COMING.
I heard you sweet! And I’ll prepare, So lovingly, your dainty wear. Oh, I will dream, and scheme, each day; And, planning, put the pence away. Then too, not only will I make Soft wooly comforts for your sake; But I will fashion, if I can, Fine raiment for your inner man. I will not think on evil things, Lest I should clip my darling’s wings. I’ll set my heart to understand The grpat salvation God has planned, Yes, every atom of my b* ing, All feeling; tasting; hearing; seeing; He shall refine; and garnish, too. I’ll be God's woman, through and through. “Lord, take me. And, if this may be, Possess my little child through me!” —“Fav Inchfawdn.”
