Edwin F. Townsend -Marta Nova, 1925s

“Me voici devant Vous, contrit comme il le faut.
Je sais tout le malheur d’avoir perdu la voie
Et je n’ai plus d’espoir, et je n’ai plus de joie
Qu’en une en qui je crois chastement, et qui vaut
A mes yeux mieux que tout, et l’espoir et la joie.”

Paul Verlaine- Prière
