Measure for Measure,

The sweet, dreamy strains of a German
waltz yibrated through the Illuminated par
lors of Rosecourt, and above the sound OF
light speech and laughter, swftlJ moving
feet and twirling draperies OF silk and satin,
they fioated out TO the narrow balcony
where, alone in the moonlight, a woman
stood.
4 woman tall fair and wondrously beau
tiful, with dark, velyety eyes and hair of
9olden-red tint.
Her costume of rich amber brocade and
brilliant jewels proclaimed her one of for
tunes favorites; vet there was look on

Motionless she stood while that tall figure
or which her gaze was riveted moved away

under the archwav straight to the open
window.
He drew aside the draperles and looked
out.

There is maid need not name,
Who seems possessed OF every grace
That fails 10 woman's lot, and makes
Her rome most attractive place.
With her dearly love to talk:
With heveach hour tain would be.
Nor long icr any greater JOY;
For love her, and She loves me.
Together we viii softly chat.
Or spend the time in silence sweet,
Commuuiug with each others hearts,
That one unchauging theme repeat.
Though many topics We discuss,
We never, never disagree,
But each unto the other Yields:
For 7 love her, and she loves me,
Sne is not perfect, am sure;
%Or am / faultlcss, that is clear:
BUtmrrorad in each others eyes.
Ourselves as paTagons appear.
With every noble trait imbued,
From every spot and blcmish free.
Our future happiness assured
Since I love her, and she loves me-
No other eyes may note her charms;
No other voice may chant her praise
Nc other heart, save mmc, be led
Captive by her beguiling ways.
1t suits me best to have u so,
And both from Jealous pangs are FREE.
