Is all the rest about her! Whether wed,

Or widow—maid—or mother, she can change her

Mind like the wind: whatever she has said

Or done, is light to what she'll say or do;—

The oldest thing on record, and yet new!

LXV.

Oh Catherine! (for of all interjections,

To thee both oh! and ah! belong, of right,

In Love and War) how odd are the connections

Of human thoughts, which jostle in their flight!
