J. C. Squire, ed. A Book of Women’s Verse. 1921.

By Anne Bradstreet (1612–1672)

Dedication: ‘To My Dear Children’

THIS Book by Any yet unread,

I leave for you when I am dead,

That, being gone, here you may find

What was your liveing mother’s mind.

Make use of what I leave in Love

And God shall blesse you from above.
