 | The collected works of Ambrose Bierce |  |
[Her locks an ancient lady gave]
Her locks an ancient lady gave
Her loving husband's life to save;
And men—they honored so the dame—
Upon some stars bestowed her name.
Her loving husband's life to save;
And men—they honored so the dame—
Upon some stars bestowed her name.
But to our modern married fair,
Who'd give their lords to save their hair,
No stellar recognition's given.
There are not stars enough in heaven.
Who'd give their lords to save their hair,
No stellar recognition's given.
There are not stars enough in heaven.
