MOTHERHOOD, DIVINE

I remember going one day into a great church in Paris and

seeing, round back of the altar, in a little chapel sacred to

the Virgin Mary and above a little altar in the little chapel,

a bas relief. It represented the figure of a woman with a babe

in her arms standing on the world; and under her feet, crusht

and bleeding, was a serpent. It is only a woman with a babe in

her arms that is going to crush the serpent after all.--HUGH

BIRKHEAD.
