Hardcover. xv, 167 p.; 19 cm. -- First printing of Newman's previously unpubl. 'The changed Mother' from Oct. 21, 1845 (not in Blehl) On pages 117-119: 'The Bodleian Library preserves the original and unprinted poem which was written by Newman within a fortnight of his conversion, dated from his old college and sent to Mark Pattison, among whose papers it was found. It gives the impression that he had received a very cold welcome on returning from Littlemore to the haunts he had once dominated. It also supplies an interpretation of the angel faces at the close of Lead, Kindly Light. To his intense and sensitive nature they reflected his beloved friends.' THE CHANGED MOTHER [stanzas 1-2, 10-11, 14-16] So Oxford, once thy dear old towers / Again to-day I see, / Each time looks like the last, tho' oft / I yet may visit thee. // But thou art changed, my Mother dear, / On me why look'st thou so? / I scarce did think thy ancient smile / Could clouded be with woe. / . . / Changed Mother! brethren yet I have, / Beloved like my own brother,-- / But those my angels sweet, will go,-- / Of them too thou art Mother. // Good-bye! changed Mother, oh good-bye! / We part not in unkindness: / I half began these silly words / In anger--'twas my blindness. / . . / I know there is one Mother yet / (Changed Mother! dost thou not know?) / Who never bade a sorrowing child / In hopeless sorrow go. // I know that I am not alone / Her prayers ascend each hour-- / I think, oh, thou my soul doth love! / She hath thy Heavenly dower. // Oh, Blessed Lord! may I and mine / Be with the One True Mother: / Then what thou wilt--to gift of thee / I cannot ask another! / Trin. Coll., / Oct. 21, 1845. Good dull, edgeworn orig. orange cloth. Ink marking on p. 114.…
