Nathalia Crane Quote

Finally she faltered;
Saw at last, forsooth,
Every gaudy color
Is a bit of truth.
Then the gates were opened;
Miracles were seen;
That instructed damsel
Donned a gown of green; Wore it in a churchyard,
All arrayed with care;
And a painted rainbow
Shone above her there.

"The Vestal" - The Janitor's Boy And Other Poems (1924)
