A gift's been given in your loved one's name Through which some bit of good may come of sorrow. Life is something all of us must borrow, Returning it, in time, to whence it came. Pleased be assured that it will be well used, As every gift that sings of love and light Will render things less wrong, though never right; For gifts of morning ought not be refused.
