Trewyn Isaf,
Ty-Croes,
Anglesea.
for New Year's Day 1908
To A. Wallace
If but a few
of all the burning, living thoughts my Friend
that seethe within your brain
their way may have[?]
described by this small gift: if you still loved
your clear soul's light, the chain
that binds the True,
the veil of blinded ignorance to rend,
you have not writ in vain.
Though they be few
who realize the distant future's trend
you have not writ in vain
from Jessie Marshall [signature]
[2]Mr. and Mrs. Marshall
were our[?] opposite way[?] thanks[?]
at God[illeg.]
