The Travellers.
Alicia, home from stranger lands, Comes sweetly in to cheer my days. She tells of Italy and France With all their old and foreign ways She says the ship was full of friends; London a bore, hut Paris gay; That she bought quantities of clothes. Yes, she did hate to come away. I stay at home and tend my task. But through the day my soul I send On journeys over singing seas Where mountains round deep valleys bend. / know the hidden midnight Ways Of perilous cities, mute and gone. Alicia talks of Biarritz — She brings me back from Bablyon. CATHERINE SHOEMAKER.
