Additional quotes by Elizabeth Carter
No more to fabled names confined, </br> To thee, supreme, all-perfect mind, </br> My thoughts direct their flight: </br> Wisdom's thy gift, and all her force </br> From thee derived, unchanging source </br> Of intellectual light! O send her sure, her steady ray </br> To regulate my doubtful way </br> Through life's perplexing road, </br> The mists of error to control, </br> And through its gloom direct my soul </br> To happiness and good!
