Explore "Now (the Forerunner)" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
With God Above -- Beneath -- Beside -- / Without -- Within -- and Everywhere; / Rising with the resistless tide / Of life, and Sure of Getting There.
Patient with Nature's long delay, / Proud of our conscious upward swing; / Not sorry for a single day, / And Not Afraid of Anything!
With Motherhood at last awake -- / With Power to Do and Light to See -- / Women may now begin to Make / The People we are Meant to Be!
