THE POINT OF VIEW, by                    
First Line: You think it noblest to refrain
Last Line: The bridegroom's pearls?
Subject(s): Brides; Grief; Sorrow; Sadness


YOU think it noblest to refrain
From songs of grief;
You make a secret of your pain—
Oh, unbelief!

Shall matron brows and necks be bare
As those of girls?
And shall the bride, then, never wear
The Bridegroom's pearls?
