~LIFE: The Young Widow is modest, but not bashful; “ree and easy, but not bold; n apple—ripe and mellow; Not too young, and not too old; Half inviting, half repulsive, Now advancing, and now shy ‘There is mischief in her dimp There is danger in her She has studied human natu She is schooled in all her arts; She has taken her diploma As the mistress of all hearts; She can tell the very moment When to sigh and when to smile; id is sometimes charming; But the widow all the while! Are you sad? how very serious Will her handsome face become; Are you angry? she is wretched, Lonely, friendless, tearful, dumb; Are you mirthful? how her laughter, iver sounding, will ring out; She can lure, and catch, and play you, As the angler does the trout. You old bachelors of forty, Who have grown so bold and wise, Young Americans of twenty, With the love-locks in your eyes, You may practice all your lessons, Taught by Cupid since the fall, But I know a little widow Who could win and fool you all. —Robert Josselyn, in Philadelphia Bulletin.
