Epigram On A Welshwoman's Hat

________________________________________________
Title:     Epigram On A Welshwoman's Hat
Author: J. C. Manning [More Titles by Manning]

"O changeful woman! Constant man!"
Has been the theme for buried ages.
But here's the truth: say "No" who can--
Ye bards, philosophers, and sages:
Men buy their Hats all kinds of shapes;
Our own Welshwomen change their's never;
'Tis with their Hats as with their loves--
Where fancy rests the heart approves,
And, loving once, they love for ever!






[The end]
