The Dove, on silver pinions, winged her peaceful way.
From James Montgomery
Blue thou art, intensely blue; Flower, whence came thy dazzling hue?
Joys too exquisite to last, And yet more exquisite when past.
Eternity: a moment standing still for ever.
Fairest and best adorned is she Whose clothing is humility.
'Tis human actions paint the chart of time.
Here hyacinths of heavenly blue, shook their rich tresses to the morn.
Hope against hope, and ask till ye receive.
