CANADIAN SINGERS AND THEIR SONGS

Inspiration.

A moment when the world is sunk in space,
And like a cloak Eternity is flung
Across the shoulders of the lifted soul,
That stands tip-toe, outstretched to meet the spheres,
And, yearning upward, like a flower is caught
Against the bosom of the Infinite.

Hilda M. Hooke.
