Love
VI
From Poems by Jean Ingelow, In Two Volumes, Volume II.
Love
O it breaks my heart, the face dejected that looks not on us,
A beautiful face--I remember now, though long I forgot.'
'Ay and I loved it. I love him to-day, and to see him thus!
Saying "I go if she bids it, for work her woe--I will not."
