38 LEXICON OF 
We know that the future 
May not be to us bright, — 
Let us trust in our God, 
And all will be right. 
Signification . . . Pure. 
Emblem White Water-Lilly. 
Sentiment Purity and Beauty. 
Purity dwells in thy meek blue eye, 
As in the cloudless summer sky ; 
Thy soft, kind words, and sunny smile, 
Tell of a heart that’s free from guile. 
No dark thoughts rise in thy gentle soul, 
No sinful emotions there hold control; 
Thy face is a mirror, calm and bright, 
Showing thy heart in its own pure light. 
No shadows there from sins of earth; 
Thy soul must be of heavenly birth ; 
So lovely, nought earth-born can be, 
So full of sweet simplicity.
