    when wine redeems the sight,
    Narrowing the mustard scansions of the eyes,

    one pale woman all alone,
    The daylight kissing her wan hair,
    Loitered beneath the gas lamps’ flare,
    With lips of flame and heart of stone.

    Now wae to thee, thou cruel lord,
    A bluidy man I trow thou be;
    For mony a heart thou hast made sair
    That ne’er did wrong to thine or thee.
