Daphne Grant Poems
To my teacher who’s noble worth I do escrue,
Such honour worthy men bestow,
To learning, and desire for truth.

To My Teacher
To my teacher who’s noble worth I do escrue,
Such honour worthy men bestow,
To learning, and desire for truth.

Much oft how well such men are made,
For though we think ‘tis easy at the start,

How kindly does our teacher tell us so.
And so good class of earnest souls,
That winkle out good knowledge ...
