Lord Walters Wife

I

But where do you go? said the lady, while both sat under the yew,

And her eyes were alive in their depth, as the kraken beneath the sea-blue.

II

Because I fear you, he answered;--because you are far too fair,

And able to strangle my soul in a mesh of your golfd-coloured hair.

III

Oh that, she said, is no reason! Such knots are quickly undone,

And too much beauty, I reckon, is nothing but too much sun.

IV

Yet farewell so, he answered; --the sunstrokes fatal at times.

I value your husband, Lord Walter, whose gallop rings still from the limes.
