VI

Name: Poems— Volume 1 - VI
Author: George Meredith

Full time there was before dinner to bring fifteen of his blood,
To sit at the old man’s table: they found that the dinner was good.
But who was she by the lilacs and pouring laburnums concealed,
When under the blossoming apple the chair of the Grandfather wheeled?
She heard one little child crying, ’Dear brave Cousin Tom!’ as it leapt;
Then murmured she: ’Let me spare them!’ and passed round the walnuts, and wept.
