WHAT WOMEN ARE THINKING.
(From * A Pageant of Great Women .*’) “I have no quarrel with you, hut I stand For the clear right to hold my life my own: The clear, cle n right. To mould it as I will,— Not as you will, with or apart from you To make of it a thing of brain and blood, Of tangible sukstnnee and of turbulent thought— No thin, gtny shadow' of the life of man' Your love/ perchance, may set a crown on it; But I may frown myself in other ways (As you have done, who are in on** flesh with me). T have no quarrel with you; but, henceforth This you must know*: The world is mine as yours— The pulsing strength and passion and hurt of It: The work T set my hand to, woman’s work. Because I set my hand to {!.” —CVilv Hamilton.
