Assurance And Other Poems PDF Download

Excerpt from Assurance and Other Poems The poetry contained in this volume is the offspring of a mind of unusual vigor, and which had passed through unusual experiences. The writer felt her way, independently of human leading, into the Christian path, demanding a solid foundation for every step. Finding evidence of her regeneration only after she had attained adult age, her religion became the spring both of her thought and life. It was her habit of mind to question herself rigidly, and to be unsatisfied with any thing short of perfection in her experiences and in her work. This accounts for that peculiar characteristic of her poetry, - a perpetual reaching forward to the yet unattained, a yearning for the higher, a longing for the glory yet to be revealed.
