Did you ever think of the millions of pretty girls in the world, with their supple bodies, blooming cheeks, sparkling eyes and hearts full of love? And have you watched them, in your mind’s eye, slowly fade, dulling life’s edge over the kitchen stove, wearing away life’s bloom by the incessant friction of children and petty household cares, the hair streaking with gray, the face furrowing with wrinkles? “for when youth, the dream, departs, It takes something from our hearts, And it never comes agnin, We behold it everywhere On the earth and in the atr, But we sigh for it in vain.” Bear with me, while I a¢cuse “this sorry scheme of things entire.” Besides, you complain of the weather.
