Lady of Kind Hands
Reading edition
Long ago to you I gave All there was of me to give. Lady of Kind Hands, I gave All the things I used to love To attain my love for you; And I ask that you will save, So they may be found in you, Surf the soft winds whisper of Sleepily across the sea, Star that slips athwart the blue, And all Beauty lost to me. Long ago to you I gave All there was of me to give. J. CROSBY BROWN, JR.
