" A LARGER HEAVEN " 413 



Mother. Living much, giving much, she asks 

 much. "This new land with vibrations in the 

 air that stir up every particle in those who breathe 

 it " demands of its nation character. Out of 

 the heart of her virgin soil, new life ; but from the 

 children who would claim her mother, courage 

 and kindness, swiftness and patience, strength and 

 sympathy, unflinching purpose, unfailing energy, 

 untiring philosophy. 



She yields the milk, but all her mind 

 Is vowed to thresh for stouter stock 

 Earth's passion for old giant kind 

 That scaled the mount, upheaved the rock 

 Devolves on them who read aright 

 Her meaning and devoutly serve.
