text_original: My heart shall hold it long in fee — A grand ideal, calm and bright, A song of hope for ministry, A faith of unstained purity, A thought of beauty for delight — These did my friend bequeath to me ; And, more than even these can be, The worthy pattern of a white, Unmarred life lived most graciously.
