Excerpt from Relicta Verses

And she turu'd her head from side to side With a satisfied air and a flutter of pride, And gazed at herself, and fondly eyed Her steel-bright collar and chain She seem'd as blithe as a bride full-drest, While the strong cold steel, in its slight unrest, Did jingle and gleam on her broad black breast And under her shaggy mane.

But I must confess I was glad to see That her chain was made fast to the walnut tree SO she could not manage to get at me, Were she ever so much inclined For I did not like, I scarce knew why, That singular look in her bright brown eye It meant too much and it reach'd too high To come of an apelike kind.
