    The country needs the political work of women to-day as much as it has ever needed woman in any other work at any other time.
    —J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)

    Let the palings of her bed
    Be quince and box-wood overlaid
    with the scented bark of yew.
    That all the wood in blossoming,
    May calm her heart and cool her blood
    For losing of her maidenhood.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
