A MOTHER'S LOVE FOR HER SON
There is an enduring tenderness in the love
of a mother for her son that transcends
all other affections of the heart.
It is neither to be chilled by selfishness,
nor daunted by danger,
nor weakened by worthlessness,
nor stifled by ingratitude.
She will sacrifice every comfort to his convenience;
she will surrender every pleasure to his enjoyment;
she will glory in his fame and exult in his prosperity;
and if misfortune over takes him,
he will be all the dearer to her;
and if disgrace settles upon his name,
she will still love and cherish him in spite of it;
and if all the world cast
him off, she will be the world to him.
