When love is at its best, one loves so much that he cannot forget.

Motherhood is priced Of God, at price no man may dare To lessen or misunderstand.

By all these lovely tokens September days are here, With summer's best of weather And autumn's best of cheer.

Bee to the blossom, moth to the flame; Each to his passion; what's in a name?

O sweet, delusive Noon, Which the morning climbs to find, O moment sped too soon, And morning left behind.

I know the lands are lit, with all the autumn blaze of Goldenrod.

I shall be found with 'Indians' engraved on my brain when I am dead. A fire has been kindled within me, which will never go out.

The goldenrod is yellow, The corn is turning brown, The trees in apple orchards With fruit are bending down.

Great loves, to the last, have pulses red; All great loves that have ever died dropped dead.

If I can do one hundredth part for the Indian that Mrs. Stowe did for the Negro, I will be thankful.
