XI.

Too well she saw the cruel change
In his averted eye;
And oh! the misery of that hour,
The damning agony.
The brain refused its function—
No! she would not believe
That he, the idol of her soul,
Could wantonly deceive;
And yet she shuddered inwardly,
When venturing to compare
His former fond devotedness
With his now altered air.
