Of peace on Earth again—

(Again! Again!)

'But I know for Whom he fell'—

The steadfast mother smiled

'Is it well with the child—is it well?

It is well—it is well with the child!'

EN-DOR

'Behold there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at En-dor' 1 Samuel XXVIII 7

XXVIII

The road to En-dor is easy to tread

For Mother or yearning Wife.

There, it is sure, we shall meet our Dead

As they were even in life.

Earth has not dreamed of the blessing in store

For desolate hearts on the road to En-dor.

Whispers shall comfort us out of the dark—

Hands—ah God!—that we knew!

Visions and voices—look and heark!—

Shall prove that our tale is true,
