A Iittlo Woman.

Athwart my path one day;
So tiny was she that she seemed TO be
A pixy strayed from the misty sea-
or a wandering greenwood ray.

"And what are you doing hereT
So tiny as you will never do

otis soft as an angels sigh,
But TO fancy a word OF yours were neard
In all the din of this worlds absurd,

Marry, and that you have!
But amid the strife and the tuinult rite'
In all the struggle and battle for HE,
What can these wee hands DOR
Eyes have I, good sir" she said
"sooth you have" quoth l,
"And truth shall flow therefrom, l trow'
And they betimes shall dim with woe,
As the hard, hard years so by.
That little bit sf a woman cast
Her two eyes fun on me,
And they smote me sore to my Utmost
core.
And they held me shaved forevermore,
Yet would l not be free!
This little bit Of n woman's hands
Reaching up into my breast
And rent apart my soothing heart
AS cannot be expressed.
The little bit OF woman's voice
Has grown most wondrous dear
Above the biare Of all elsewhere

Dear one. I bless the subtle power
That makes me wholly thine;
And I'm proud TO say that bless the day
When n little woman wrought her way
