The following verse is from a 19th century friendship album that belonged to Berta Mary Henry nee Sharp (1873-1955)
Dear Berta
Fond Memory, come and hover o'er
This album page of my fair friend,
Enrich her from thy precious store,
And recollections send.
If on this page she chance to gaze
In years to come -- where'er she be --
Tell her of earlier happy days,
And bring her back one thought of me.
Nina Bowling
