CHAPTER XXX. The Country Girl's Score Card

THE COUNTRY GIRL'S SCORE CARD

I am aware As I go commonly sweeping the stair, Doing my part of the everyday care-- Human and simple my lot and my share-- I am aware of a marvelous thing: Voices that murmur and ethers that ring In the far stellar spaces where cherubim sing. I am aware of the passion that pours Down the channels of fire through Infinity's doors; Forces terrific, with melody shod, Music that mates with pulses of God. I am aware of the glory that runs From the core of myself to the core of the suns. Bound to the stars by invisible chains, Blaze of eternity now in my veins, Seeing the rush of etherial rains, Here in the midst of the everyday air-- I am aware.
