"——A woman's will dies hard,
In the field, or on the sward."


"There were three little women
Each fair in the face,
And their laughter with music
Filled all the green place;
As they wove pleasant thoughts
With the threads of their lace.

Of the wind in the tree tops
The flowers in the glen,
Of the birds—the brown robin,
The wood dove, the wren,
They talked—but their thoughts
Were of three little men!"
