Her heart was the truest in the world, Her love the best to recall - For none on earth can take her place She is still the dearest Mother of al1, If she could have spoken before she di ed, These words she would have repT i ad — 1This life for me has truly passed, I:ve loved you all to the very last Weep not for me but courage take, And love each other for ny sake1".
