John Bartlett (1820–1905). Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. 1919.

Mary Gardiner Brainard. (1837–1905)

I see not a step before me as I tread on another year;
But I ’ve left the Past in God’s keeping,—the Future
His mercy shall clear;
And what looks dark in the distance may brighten as I draw near.

Not knowing.

I would rather walk with God in the dark than go alone in the light.

Not knowing.

That which we look on with unselfish love
And true humility is surely ours,
Even as a lake looks at the stars above
And makes within itself a heaven of stars.

Ownership.
