Harriet Monroe, ed. (1860–1936).  Poetry: A Magazine of Verse.  1912–22.
 
A Flower Given to My Daughter
By James Joyce
 
FRAIL the white rose, and frail are
Her hands that gave,
Whose soul is sere, and paler
Than time’s wan wave.
 
Rose-frail and fair—yet frailest,        5
A wonder wild
In gentle eyes thou veilest,
My blue-veined child.
