WOMAN and
...SOCIETY...


VIII kiss and clasp her neck in vain,
Love thy mother little onel
Gaze upon her living eyes.
And mirror back her love for thee.
Hereafter thou may'st shudder signs
To meet them when they cannot see.
Gaze upon her living eyes!
Press her lips the while they glow
With love that they have often told!
Hereafter thou may'St press in woe
And kiss them till thine own are cold.
Press her lips the while they glow:
OH revere her raven hair
Although 1t be not silver gray!
TOO early, Death, led on by care,
May snatch save one dear lock away
oh! revere her raven hair!
Pray for her at eve and morn,
That Heaven may long the stroke de-
For thou may'st live the hour forlorn.
When thou wilt ask TO die with her.
Pray for her at eve and morn.
Thomas Hood.
