Excerpt from The Unknown Madonna: And Other Poems
The Unknown Madonna.
I know that picture's meaning, - the unknown,
Called School of Umbria; it stands alone;
Those prayerful fingers never worked to fame, -
A master's hand, though silence keeps his name.
But for the meaning, gaze awhile and plain
The thought he worked in warms to life again:
Love made those features living, such a face
Smiled once, - on whom? Say in a lofty place
He could not climb to, - in those eyes' blue deeps
The reverence of unreached ideals keeps
The human memory, not a face of dreams,
And coldly beautiful, but one that seems
Caught in the likeness that a lover's eyes
Devoutly worshipped to idealize;
And since creation is akin to prayer
He made that face God's Mother, and set her there
Among the lilies by the hill-side town.
