These all, than Saxon EDITH, please me less.


[IN THE ALBUM OF ROTHA Q——.]

A passing glance was all I caught of thee,

In my own Enfield haunts at random roving.

Old friends of ours were with thee, faces loving;

Time short: and salutations cursory,

Though deep, and hearty. The familiar Name

Of you, yet unfamiliar, raised in me

Thoughts—what the daughter of that Man should be,
