Love
XXXIX
From The Poetical Works of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Volume 2
Love
The tramp of hoof, the flash of steel--
The Paynims round her coming!
The sound and sight have made her calm,--
False page, but truthful woman;
She stands amid them all unmoved:
A heart once broken by the loved
Is strong to meet the foeman.
