This is an incredibly powerful piece and, living when she lived, women were more likely to die in childbirth. I would have been interested to find out which child's birth this poem preceded. I like how she spells it all out even as the emotions are very clearly stirring behind the scenes.
Thanks for sharing this and the notes at the end so we can get a clearer picture of her and her work.
