THE WHITE WIND.
7I
On rugs of fur and silk
Broidered with curious device
Of basilisk and cockatrice
Upon the broad-woven scarlet marge.
— God ! how this bosom boils with milk,
Its veined radiance swelling —
Ah ! the light grows —
Back, from these splendid woes
And joys obscure
Into the squalid and impure
House, and the filth indwelling !
She crawls within the hovel.
