ON THE WAY TO CHURCH.


There is one l know. sec her sometimes pass
In the morning streets upon her way to mass;
A calm, sweet woman, with unearthly eyes.
Men turn TO look at her, but never stop,
Reading in those blue depths the death Of
hope,
And wise chastisement for thoughts un-
wise. lt
Pure is her brow, as of a marble saint;
Her brown hair pencils it with ripples faint,
There is no shadow on it and no light;
Her cheeks are pale, like lilies in eclipse;
Hardly a little redncss on her lips
Paints the sad smile where all the rest is
white.
Tall is she and bent forward like a reed
Which the wind toys with as she walks with
speed;
Girllike her limbs and virginia. her waist
Or the world wonders there is none so sweet
AS is the summer lightning of her feet, H..
Speeding her onward like a fawn in haste.
What is her secret? All the world has tried
To guess it. One | knew in guessing died
And was no wiser for his mortal pain.
Each has turned sadder from the thankless
quest
And gone back silent, even If he guessed,
Knowing all answer would be counted vain.
knew her once know her not today.
Our eyes meet sometimes, but hers turn away
Quicker from mine than from the rest that
look.
Her pale cheek quivers, a flush comes and
goes,
AS in the presence of a soul that knows,
And her hands tighten on her missal book.
Men have done evil, yet have won to heaven;
Lived in blood outlines, yet died forgiven
May not, TOO, one day win my grace?
All, mol the sacrilege of this worst sin
Outweghs all grace. dare not enter in
