SERVILITY.<br />

-Servants that are without a master<br />

are not on that account free men: servility<br />

is in their soul.<br />

SURRENDERED TO THE<br />

ENEMY.<br />

Laid on thy snow-white shoulder<br />

My head is at rest;<br />

And I listen, —and know the unquiet<br />

Desire of thy breast.<br />

The gorgeous hussars have stormed it,<br />

And entered without strife ;<br />

And, to-morrow, a woman will leave me<br />

That I love as my life.<br />

What tho' in the morning she leave me.<br />

To-night she is mine, —<br />

My head is at rest on her shoulder,<br />

And her snow-white arms entwine.<br />

FRIENDS AND<br />

ENEMIES.<br />

It is always a pleasure to me when<br />

two of my friends like one another, just<br />

as 1 am always glad when two of my<br />

enemies take to fighting one another.
