But neither thanks nor answer came to this:
She wrote again more urgently: again
A week of silence. Lastly, in despair
And terrified for William utterly,
With hasty preparation came herself
To London; and, because she doubted much
To take the girl or leave her, Agnes stayed
With one a neighbour chancing at the time
To have no children of her own at home.
She wrote again more urgently: again
A week of silence. Lastly, in despair
And terrified for William utterly,
With hasty preparation came herself
To London; and, because she doubted much
To take the girl or leave her, Agnes stayed
50
To have no children of her own at home.
