Inscription For A Crucifix.

A poem by Victor Marie Hugo

("Vous qui pleurez, venez à ce Dieu.")

[Bk. III. iv., March, 1842.]


Ye weepers, the Mourner o'er mourners behold!
Ye wounded, come hither - the Healer enfold!
Ye gloomy ones, brighten 'neath smiles quelling care -
Or pass - for this Comfort is found ev'rywhere.
