I know not where his islands lift…

I know not where his islands lift…

The following lines in calligraphic script by A.R. Gurrey Jr. are included as a photo-transfer to the leaf:

I know not where His islands lift
Their fronded palms in air,
I only know, I can not drift
Beyond His love and care.

Whittier

 

These lines are from a later stanza of the poem The Eternal Goodness by American poet John Greenleaf Whittier.  (1807-1892)
