To end her Terrible Suspense.
But all their Learnéd Consultations
Ended in Nought, for what avail
Mere Man’s Unerring Calculations
Where WOMAN’S Intuitions fail?
Their Weighty Brains refused to cope
With that Unyielding Envelope.
She put the matter in the Hands
Of the Police; she went to see
Astrologers from Foreign Lands
