They stalk, children of the nouveaux riches; chimes

How Nature always does contrive

That’s born into the world alive,
Is either a little Liberal,
Or else a little Conservative!”

On which we had tormented you

With lies, self-denial, unspoken regret
And the sick eyes that blame; before the divorce
And the treachery.”
