Forgiveness

Title:     Forgiveness
Author: George MacDonald [More Titles by MacDonald]

God gives his child upon his slate a sum--
To find eternity in hours and years;
With both sides covered, back the child doth come,
His dim eyes swollen with shed and unshed tears;
God smiles, wipes clean the upper side and nether,
And says, "Now, dear, we'll do the sum together!"

[The end]
George MacDonald's poem: Forgiveness
