When evils are most free? O then, by day
Where wilt thou find a cavern dark enough
To mask thy monstrous visage?”

But when the surprise,
First vague shadow of surmise
Flits across her bosom young,
Of a joy apart from thee,
Free be she, fancy-free;
Nor thou detain her vestures hem,
Nor the palest rose she flung
From her summer diadem.”
