The gospel whose glad promises atone
For all of bitterness the heart hath known.

Asphodel (1910)

And legends wild and fairy tales they read;
Stringing bright gems of Fancy on Truth's golden thread.

Then on her soul first broke the fatal truth
That flashed, a flaming sword, before the gates
Of the lost Eden of her blighted youth.

Asphodel (1910)
