The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1901-12-04

1t was not through our Idleness we
quaiIed
Nor lack of many high and holy
aim;
We were not towards, tho our spirits
qualde
Just at the crucial moment, and so
Shame
Eompassed us round; and Hope, too
long bewailed,
and Fame.
Where others pluck bough of bios
SONS bright
Or golden fruit we gather for delight
A bitter apple or a faded rose,
Or, oftener, thorns that hurt the flesh.
Who knows
In what strange way we have offended
Fate
That she should ever thus our plans
Illustrate?
All, herein lies the final bitterness
We miss the meaning of our unsuccess!
THE Unsuccessful" by Geraldine
Meyrick, in November Lippincott's.
