WOMAN and
SOCIETY.
And Then / Knew.

Oft had / read, in prose and verse,
The magic tale of love,
The fervid words whose utmost bliss
Scarce scared the earth above;
But still with unrevealing mind
1 scanned the message true
And then / looked 1tlto your eyes,
And then-and then 1 knew.
Oft had / heard, oft even seem
Loves sweet communion feel
The magic wand OF happiness
beyond the worlds best veal
But still with unavailing heart
No kindred bliss could brew
And then-and then l heard your
voice
And then-and then / knew.
And / had thought and dreamed of
love.
Invoked it all in vain,
Besought, reviled it, and adored
Its empty shrine again.
But still with unresp onsive soul
No kindred soul could WOO
And then my lips met thine. and
And then. ah! then 1 knew.
