'patient, loving, noble Nell,' <br>Like light from sunset skies, <br>The beauty of thy sinless life <br>Upon the dark world lies. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">On thy sad story, gentle child, <br>Dim eyes will often dwell, <br>And loving hearts will cherish long <br>The memory of Nell.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Louisa+May+Alcott">Louisa May Alcott</a><div class=q>
