O beautiful woman too well we know	A
The terrible weight of thy woman's woe	A
So great that the world in its careless way	B
Remembered thy beauty for more than a day	B
In the name of the truth from thy brow is torn	C
The crown of redemption thou long hast worn	C
And into the valley of sin thou art hurled	D
To be trampled anew by the feet of the world	D
	-
The beautiful picture is thine no more	E
That hangs in the palace on Italy's shore	E
The tear stained eyes where the shadow lies	F
Like a darksome cloud in the summer skies	F
Will tell thy story to men no more	E
For all untrue is the tale of yore	E
And the far famed picture that hangs on the wall	G
Is a painter's fancy that is all	G
	-
Italia's shore is a land of light	H
Where the sunlight of day drowns the shadows of night	H
And the great warm sun with his golden rays	I
Imprisons the light of eternal days	I
But the tale of thy woes is a shadow there	J
That fills with its horror the perfumed air	J
	-
By day and by night in the palace there	J
Thy picture has hung with its face so fair	J
Beguiling the travelers come from afar	K
With its sad sweet grace like some voiceless star	K
Till the hears that shuddered before thy sin	L
Recalled not the shadow that lay within	L
But remembered only with pitying grace	M
The hopeless grief on the child like face	M
	-
The rosy dawn with its misty light	H
Shone fair on thy brow in the morning bright	H
And the glittering noon with its rays of gold	N
Imprisoned thy soul in its jeweled hold	N
	-
Oh fair was the picture at early dawn	O
With the matchless beauty that Guido had drawn	O
And fair was the face in the noon of gold	N
Touched with a glory that never grew old	N
	-
But lovelier still in the shadowed eyes	F
Lay the burning sunset of Italy's skies	F
And the beautiful face with its voiceless woe	A
Grew fair as a saint's in the crimson glow	A
No wonder the poets grew wild at the sight	H
And sung of thy beauty with mad delight	H
Till the fame of the picture spread over the land	P
Revealing the touch of its master hand	P
	-
The fair Madonna with saint like face	M
Creation of Raphael's exquisite grace	M
Is scarcely more famed than the child like head	Q
Of thou to whom sorrow forever is wed	Q
O beautiful woman the world with its scorn	C
Will mock at the glory thou long hast worn	C
And rend aside in the name of the truth	R
The veil of mercy that hides thy youth	R
But the romance that clings to the wondrous face	M
Will fall on our hearts with a softened grace	M
And the fair young sinner on Italy's shore	E
Will be loved and pitied forevermore	E
