XI. "Conservatrix Of Milésien"

________________________________________________
Title:     XI. "Conservatrix Of Milésien"
Author: Ezra Pound [More Titles by Pound]

"CONSERVATRIX of Milésien"
Habits of mind and feeling,
Possibly. But in Ealing
With the most bank-clerkly of Englishmen?

No, "Milésien" is an exaggeration.
No instinct has survived in her
Older than those her grandmother
Told her would fit her station.

[The end]
Ezra Pound's poem: Conservatrix Of Milésien
