Santa Teresa's Bookmark. (From The Spanish Of Santa Teresa)

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 1807 (Portland) – 1882 (Cambridge)



Let nothing disturb thee,
Nothing affright thee
All things are passing;
God never changeth;
Patient endurance
Attaineth to all things;
Who God possesseth
In nothing is wanting;
Alone God sufficeth.
