Asolo: September 6, 1889.

ROSNY

Woe, he went galloping into the war,

Clara, Clara!

Let us two dream: shall he 'scape with a scar?

Scarcely disfigurement; rather a grace

Making for manhood which nowise we mar:

See, while I kiss it, the flush on his face—

Rosny, Rosny!

Light does he laugh: "With your love in my soul"—
