The Home Circle.

By Hannah Coddington

SERVING.

"My Lord hath sent me," she smiling said, "On chosen errands, service full and free, To tasks that echo with sweet minstrelsy. And joy and laughter crowned her head. "My Lord hath sent me," she grieving said, "Through sorrow's depths, where saddest things reveal; My life is broken on a cruel wheel." With bitter rue she crowned her head. "Where my Lord sends me," she weeping said, "These footprints show that he has gone before." And, following thus, she loved him more and more, Nor knew the hour he crowned her head. —Hannah Coddington.
