Unwitting ’twas the goad of personal pain,

To view in curst eclipse our Mother’s mind,

And show us of some rigid harridan

The wretched bondmen till the end of time.

O lived the Master now to paint us Man,

That little twist of brain would ring a chime

Of whence it came and what it caused, to start

Thunders of laughter, clearing air and heart.


INTERNAL HARMONY.
