To His Love.

By Francis William Lauderdale Adams

"Teach me, love, to be true; Teach me, love, to love; Teach me to be pure like you. It will be more than enough! "Ah, and in days to come, Give me, my seraph, too, A son nobler than I, A daughter true like you: "A son to battle the wrong, To seek and strive for the right; A beautiful daughter of song, To point us on to the light!"
