Make no deep scrutiny Into her mutiny Rash and undutiful; Past all dishonour, Death has left on her Only the beautiful Still, for all slips of hers, One of Eve's family; Wipe those poor lips of hers, Oozing so clammily.
74 psl. - Ah, World of ours, are you so gray And weary, World, of spinning, That you repeat the tales to-day You told at the beginning ? For lo ! the same old myths that made The early " stage successes," Still "hold the boards," and still are played, "With new effects and dresses.
