Sobre IBD

Elizabeth Prentiss wrote 122 poems that 'depict some of the deepest experiences of her Christian life . . . they are her tears of joy or of sorrow, her cries of anguish, and her songs of love and triumph.' The epigraph states: 'The testimony of one soul is the experience of thousands.' As Harper’s Magazine (1874) wrote: 'These poems . . . will give strength to many that feel the weariness, and faint under it, and that need just this cry of a labored trust as a means of conduct to the higher experience of joyous trust.'
