WOMAN and
SOCIETY.

The rosy riot in my heart
When she is kind to me.
How could 1 vex so fair a maid,
So fair and calm and high,
When l am shackled to the earth,
Bond brother to a sign?
My pain shall not be hers to share,
My passion sway her not,
And high and calm and fair she still
Shall count her happy lot.
But does she count it so, nor yearn
To hear a lovers call?
l cannot longer bear the doubt,
| go--to tell her all.
