The Complete Poems of Christina Rossetti | ||
[“I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow”—]
“I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow”—Yea, scarlet woman, today: but not yea at all tomorrow.
Scarlet queen on a scarlet throne all today without sorrow,
Bethink thee: today must end; there is no end of tomorrow.
