SONGS OF THE SOUL

A MIRROR NEW

I bring to youA mirror new—A glass of introspection clear,That illusions shows and sooty fearThat spots thy mind.Thou wilt findThis mirror new  Would also show all true  The “Inner You,”That’s veiled in fleshAnd doth ne’er appear.Each night consult afreshThy mirror friend and clear awayThe dust that gathers each day.

[ 81 ]
