BLACKWELL FAMILY
ELIZABETH BLACKWELL
FROM RACHEL ROGERS
ALIAS ROSA ROBSARTDedication to Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell.

I
What more can England boast of
Than having given birth
To one whose fame & glory
Will ever shine on earth

II
If her kind smile beam o'er you
You feel inspired with love
With love and admiration
Sent to one from above

III
And if perchance her shadow
Falls on a patient's bed
In ease and perfect happiness
They then can rest their head

IV
They who have had a sister
Placed 'neath her loving care
Can then perceive her wisdom
In restoring one so dear.V
She is a priceless treasure
Whose wisdom few possess
To know this noble woman
Is a blessing to the blest

VI
May her good life he followed
By many more on earth
England thou may'st well glory
In having given her birth.
