A Rose Unpetalled

Jesus, to aid thy feeble powers
I see thy Mother's arms outspread,
As thou on this sad earth of ours
Dost set thy first, thy faltering tread;
See, in thy path I cast away
A rose in all its beauty dressed,
That on its petals' disarray
Thy feet, so light,
may softly rest. ...

An image of that heart should be
Which makes, as every instant flows,
Its whole burnt-sacrifice to thee.

Full many a flower whose grand display
Charms thee; but I have other dreams
Bloomless, to cast myself away.

Were bright fulfillment of my dream;
I'd prove my love no easier way;
Life, here below, forgotten still,
A rose before Thy path outspread
At Nazareth, or Calvary's hill
Relieve Thy last, Thy labouring tread.
