19. V. 1906./
Dear Mrs. Eddy.

I send on one additional verse to the enclosed poem: – the real finish - as I see it through the study of your writings - to the miserable uncertainty of this and all other such "Doubters."

The thought came to me directly I read those delightful verses by Ernest S. Jaros - and it is only passed on to you as a would-be "Message of Love", with respect and gratitude. -

Your Students' Student -
Alice Edmunds./

But just as he turned from the garden of Life, The sun shone radiantly As Written: radiently clear - In a flash, he saw God was of Love & not strife, And the Doubter ceased to sneer. Then he tasted and saw that the fruit had no flaw, And Life - of God's giving - no fear./
