��OUR WOMEN
RIDE of a day, your eye is bright, And the flower of your cheek is red-.
Tie died with a smile on a field of France- I smile for his sake/ she said.
Mother of one, the babe you bore
Sleeps in a chilly bed. He gave himself with a gallant pride
Shall I be less proud? she said.
Woman, you weep and sit apart,
Whence is your sorrow fed? I have none of love or kin to go
I am shamed and sad, she said.
