The Convent of the Sacred Heart,
And sang within the bloody wood

And let their liquid siftings fall
To stain the stiff dishonored shroud.”

But I do find it cowardly and vile,
For fear of what might fall, so to prevent
The time of life—arming myself with patience
To stay the providence of some high powers
That govern us below.”
