- Queen of the earth - Partition musicale
- An angel in all but name, is she
O'er life her vigil keeping;
Whose wings are spread, o'er each cradle bed
Where the hopes of earth lie sleeping.
The Heroes that vanquish amid the strife,
And write their names on the scroll of life;
Have thought for the fadeles laurels of fame,
To lay their crowns on her sacred name.
Wide as the world is her kingdom of power.
Love is her sceptre, her crown, and her dower.
In ev'ry heart she has fashioned her throne.
As Queen of the Earth she reigneth alone.
An angel in all but name, is she
'Mid scenes of shade, and sorrow:
She weaves, thro each night, a ladder of light.
That leads to a bright tomorrow.
She launches each life on the sea of Time.
And guides each helm to the far off clime :
Her pinions of love are spread in each sail,
Till she casts the anchor within the vale.
Wide as the world is her kingdom of power.
Love is her sceptre, her crown, and her dower.
In ev'ry heart she has fashioned her throne.
As Queen of the Earth she reigneth alone.

La mère nourricière est reine de la terre (plaque 12).
