AQS on an off-white 4.5 x 7 album page. Riley pens the third stanza from his poem ‘God Bless Us Everyone.’ In full: “And thus he prayed, ‘God bless us every one!’ Enfolding all the creeds within the span; Of his child-heart; and so, despising none, was nearer saint than man.” Signed at the top, “Yours truly, James Whitcomb Riley, Indianapolis, Ind., Feb 6:1893.” In fine condition, with rough left edge and some light toning.
