White arms cleaning through folds of
A woman of forty summers.
No thread of white in the auburn hair,
No line of age in the forehead fair,
A life unmarried by touch or care,
In spite OF her forty summers.
A ~husband-lovei and children sweet.
Pleasure to charm and friends to greet,
Roses scattered before her feet,
Through each of forty summers.
Summers all. for winters bold
Have snatched her sunshine and made her
cold;
Have killed her roses and left her old;
Nothing she knows but
Nothing she knows of laten cloud,
OF freezing air and tcrnpest loud,
OF SHOWS that weave for Hope a shroud:
Her life has been only
So calm she sits in the summer air.
No sorrows to fret, no cross to bear.
A summer idyl. a vision fair.

Yet cold and blast but make us strong,
After the snow the robins song:
To the fullest life by right belong
