- What the image shows
- A photograph of a handwritten manuscript page in brown ink on aged cream paper, written in flowing cursive script in long lines with a few lines of verse-like text. Two small signatures or initials appear in the lower right corner beneath the final lines. The page is a handwritten copy of a poem or hymn, not a letter, and its lines cannot be read clearly enough to quote.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
- Text in the image
- In the land of the Stranger, if e'er thou should'st roamShould the song and the strain thou hast once heard at homeThy remembrance is like the compass that guidesThe wandering mariner forthAnd the Ship may be lost by winds & by tidesThe needle still points to the northIn the hand of the Stranger if e'er a thorn should steerShould the King and the Stranger then have more be ...By the lips of the Stranger be breath'dShin'd the smiles of the day may surround theeStill steadily still points to the NorthRead automatically; may contain mistakes.
