________________________________________________
Title: Harp Song Of The Dane Women Author: Rudyard Kipling [More Titles by Kipling] What is a woman that you forsake her, She has no house to lay a guest in-- She has no strong white arms to fold you, Yet, when the signs of summer thicken, Sicken again for the shouts and the slaughters. You forget our mirth, and talk at the tables, Then you drive out where the storm-clouds swallow, Ah, what is Woman that you forsake her, [The end] GO TO TOP OF SCREEN |
