Of all life's ways than to be cursed

With indecision. Turn and choose

Your way, then all the world refuse.

And men who saw her still do say

That never once her lips were heard,

By gloaming dusk or shining day,

To utter or pronounce one word.

Men went and came, and still she stood

In silence watching down the wood.

Yea, still she stood and look'd away,
